As a designer she brings critical process thinking, a detailed eye of reading between the lines, and enthusiasm. Her ethos is: "always learning." She is a big picture thinker who is looking to work with a team that likes to advocate for the best (and often, not easiest) solutions. If you are a part of that team, then she will fit in perfectly.
