Removing blockers, reducing pain points, and helping to prioritize. My focus is to understand the overall needs of my team along with the needs of individuals and how I can help them do their best work.
I strive to foster a LEAN, fail fast, learning culture, while connecting individuals for mentorship based on their personal development goals, strengths, experience, and growth opportunities
A vision consists of core values, purpose, mission, strategy, and goals. Establishing a vision for your team, project, product, organization, and company can help create alignment, purpose, and drive prioritization
Driven by my curious nature, I strive to find the what and why of the world around me. When I was little I used to take everything apart to see how every piece fit together and why it was necessary. Now that I am older I have a better toolkit and approach problems with the same passion and curiosity. I love to solve complicated business and user challenges with delightful and simple to use solutions as a organization, as a team, or on my own.
