design values



1

purpose > plans

The “why” behind a choice matters more to me than the choice itself.

2

make informed design decisions

My role is to make intentional, high-quality design decisions.

3

people > deliverables

I foster psychological safety, wellbeing, and impact through my work, centering those with marginalized identities.

4

build for the margins to build for everyone

Accessible design is great design. The curb cut out effect is underutilized.


process


It's not always tidy & linear, but all my design projects cycle through these 4 major phases:


1

I research what problems to solve and scope potential solutions.

2

I design with the right level of fidelity for the unknowns and understand what my design says to the world.

3

I measure the design against success criteria and evaluate strengths and weaknesses.

4

Repeat steps 1-3 until the job is done.
