Mentorship

Throughout my design career, I have been fortunate enough to benefit from the guidance of some truly great mentors and mentorship programs.

Now that my own career has progressed, I have the opportunity to give back to the design community by helping empower other women with the resources, tools and support to create their own unique success stories.

I’m passionate about elevating & supporting #WomenInTech and #WomeninSTEM and inspiring the next generation of female leaders – learn more on my About Page.

I focus primarily on mentoring women and Junior UI/UX & Product Designers that are new to the field, transitioning careers, or fresh out of bootcamp. I’ve mentored with Hexagon UX and Built By Girls, and now I’m working with ADPList.

Design Resources

Here’s a list of resources that have been helpful throughout my career. Many of these resources are broad, but many are also focused on women in design. This list is updated periodically, but if you come across others you think should be added, feel free to give me a shout.
