How I lead
I do my best work before the problem is fully formed. When product, research, and engineering are still figuring out what they're actually building. That's where my strength comes in: not just shaping the interface, but helping a team converge on the right sequence, the right constraints, the right first move.
Good design leadership isn't about having the answers early. It's about making the reasoning visible enough that others can challenge it, build on it, and carry it forward without you in the room.
Tools I've built for the team. Both are published for the wider design org.
Design crit roster. Picks who presents at our fortnightly crit so everyone gets a fair turn. It asks them on Slack, handles the no’s, and sets up the session, so my manager doesn’t run it by hand.
Weekly wrap. Pulls a designer’s week from Slack, Confluence, GitHub, Figma, calendars and meeting notes, and writes it up in their own voice. Leads can skim it, and at review time Claude can read the year back.
