My Facilitation Superpower
Design Thinking Facilitator & Workshop Creator


My passion for design thinking and collaborative problem-solving began in 2018 after reading Sprint: How to Solve Big Problems and Test New Ideas in 5 Days.

Since then, I’ve become a go-to facilitation expert within my organization, driving alignment and innovation across teams.

How I Have Made An Impact:

- Facilitated over 50 workshops, design studios, retrospectives, and brainstorms that left teams inspired and aligned.

- Created the "Walking the Store" workshop and Figma template to help teams tackle UX debt.

- Developed “Idea Studios”—custom workshops blending proven facilitation frameworks with design thinking.

- Certified in Facilitation Fundamentals & Design Sprint Masterclass (AJ&Smart, 2023–2024).

By creating structured spaces for collaboration, I help teams move faster, think bigger, and execute with clarity.

Walking the Store Workshop

In February 2025 I led a 50 person workshop to help local UX designers tackle UX Debt by teaching them how to "Walk the Store" with their cross-functional teams.

I shared my framework to help other UXDs create this quarterly ritual with their teams and log "paper cuts" in the user experience.

Attendees then got hands on experience and practiced using the Feeding San Diego website and my Figjam template.
