Experience
Amazon | 2017 - Present
In roles as a senior designer and design manager I have worked across Alexa devices and payment platforms. I currently lead UX and conversational voice design for the new gen-AI Alexa+ including routines, feature discovery, and onboarding. I have led UX research, design strategy, innovation workshops, and product launches for a wide variety of Amazon products including Amazon Pay, Seller Central, the Alexa App, Alexa+, and Echo Devices. Relationship building is my core skill, whether it’s manage stakeholder expectations, presenting for developers and VPs, or aligning partner teams across Amazon. As a design leader I managed a cross-functional team of designers and researchers, contributed to developing the company wide UX apprentice curriculum, led UX bar raising reviews, and mentored.
Fisher Creates | 2013 - Present
As an artist and storyteller I aim to inspire people with the extraordinary beauty of nature and encourage them to protect these places. I guide a variety of in person watercolor and sketching experiences from one day workshops to multi-day overnight backpacking trips with organizations like Yosemite Conservancy and Seattle School of Visual Arts. I collaborate with select companies to provide illustrations for products sold at stores like West Elm, FireWorks, and Seattle Art Museum.
PitchBook Data | 2016 - 2017
As a senior product designer, I improved the user experience for 74K SaaS users seeking to research financial investment opportunities. I led design initiatives to improve the platform’s information architecture, UI design consistency, clarity of visual data, and advanced search capabilities. I contributed to team efficiency through implementing new intake methods, helping maintain a consistent web and app design system, and designing new components for PitchBook’s UI library.
Oracle Marketing Cloud | 2014 - 2016
As a designer, I created assets and strategy for cross-channel digital marketing experiences for external clients like Verizon, Intuit, REI, and Comcast. I led design and user testing for the national launch of Verizon’s Smart Rewards program, which enrolled over 9 million users, doubled launch targets, increased consumer spend, and reduced churn of high risk accounts.
Fenwick Publishing Group | 2012 - 2013
As a designer, I created visual and marketing assets including redesigning the company web site and print design deliverables. I was responsible for company and client projects including presentations, printed book layouts, app interfaces, and websites.
OSU Memorial Union | 2010 - 2012
As a designer, I was part of a creative studio supporting a diverse range of university clients with multi-channel promotional campaigns. Deliverables included event branding, posters, icon design, websites, social media assets, and illustrations.
But wait, there’s more…
I’d love to share project details and stories that can’t fit on this page. Want to hear how I discovered Alexa couldn’t count very well? Or hear how I guided a team efficiently after our wilderness retreat got stuck in an alpine thunderstorm?
