Common Questions

How do you typically scope an engagement?
Every engagement starts with a conversation. I listen to understand your challenge, goals, and constraints — then propose a scope that makes sense. No cookie-cutter packages.
Do you work with remote teams?
Absolutely. While I'm based in DFW, I work with teams across the country. Workshops can be facilitated in person or virtually, and ongoing consulting works seamlessly over video.
What industries do you work with?
I've worked across healthcare, financial services, technology, consumer products, and more. The principles of Human-Centered Design apply universally — the context changes, but the approach is adaptable.
How is your approach different from a design agency?
Agencies deliver work product. I deliver capability. My goal is to leave your team stronger and more confident, not dependent on external help.
What does a typical timeline look like?
Workshops can be as short as a half-day. Embedded partnerships typically run 2–6 months. Advisory retainers are ongoing. We'll find the right fit for your situation.
