UX design and research lead my work, shaped by experience across agency environments and product teams. Accessibility is deeply personal, I build to make sure no one is left out.

OPPORTUNITY
Walmart Creative Services needed a vendor to take over production work and create re-usable components for their e-commerce platforms. Creative design decisions also needed to be made, not just what the client thought was merely production. They wanted to reduce costs for building and updating UI modules quickly to stay competitive with other online stores.
SOLUTIONS
Using a Figma design system, I created new master components to accommodate design requirements that differed from what the existing system provided. I also mentored both onshore and offshore design teams, guiding them in Figma, the design system, and production workflows associated with it. Additionally, I worked diligently to deliver assets and examples based on client-provided test projects, helping support their evaluation process in determining the contract award.
IMPACT
We were ultimately awarded the multimillion-dollar contract, successfully winning the bid. Following this, I developed an agile process to support real-time work and improve team efficiency. I also began conducting regular retrospectives, while introducing the team to new applications and automated data collection methods. In addition, I laid out plans to integrate Figma into Adobe Workfront for streamlined tracking, along with implementing fully automated copy updates using AI tools.
