COACH

Experienced product design leader (player-coach) with over a decade of experience identifying opportunities for, researching, designing, shipping and monitoring useful and useable digital products.


I'm an empathetic servant-leader with a passion for mentoring and coaching designers. I believe investing in their success generates a return in success for the business and the user, and that empowering them to be a part of strategic decision-making where possible creates autonomy and ownership.


Last but certainly not least, I once got the WORDL on the first try.

Look, trust me when I say you really want and need Holly on your team as a design leader, in whatever shape that takes for you — IC, manager, executive, and so on. She balances leadership with hard skills gracefully and nearly effortlessly. She's extremely professional in her communication and overall approach, while also being very personable (ask about her lovely Jeep and why she has it). She has a proven track record of managing difficult situations at notable SaaS companies and finding a successful path forward. Cannot say enough good things about Holly.
