Career Summary

As a Digital Transformation consultant, I spend much of my time relating product management and human-centered design principles in my client work. One of my strongest methods is applying techniques commonly thought to only help with physical product design and practice it to solve business challenges. I routinely reference the methods like QFD, persona development, ideation, and prioritization techniques that we all learn in our X50 and design courses at U-M!

How does your Master’s degree differentiate you from others?

Advanced degrees are a great way to credentialize yourself in new and prospective client discussions. It is a great element of a personal brand.

Reflection on Time Spent at U-M

Favorite Student Orgs: Central Student Government Favorite Classes: ME250, ENGIN 100, and ME 211. Advice to students: Stay close to your classmates after graduation – not just your closest friends. The alumni network is an asset I never fully understood until I left – but it is one of the greatest parts of Michigan and helps to make sure that your college experience doesn’t end just because you graduated.
