I’m Chris, a digital product design leader in Chicago
What I do
-
Specializing in consumer-grade experiences for enterprise software. I apply the craft of discovery and design to digital product development, defining outcome based efforts aligned to business impact.
-
I use design thinking and facilitation to help cross-functional teams and SMEs align on a shared vision of their product goals. I've helped dozens of teams by applying design sprint frameworks to address problems big and small.
-
I build, recruit, and scale design teams and uplevel their skills, setting the right culture for the team. As a design leader I elevate the design discipline's contribution to the business at the executive leadership level and give other cross-functional leaders the language to articulate the value of a good design and product experience.
