During my tenure I had the opportunity to thrive in a number of roles at Backstop which included professional services, marketing, sales, engineering, video production, and product management. This comprehensive experience strengthened my ability to align the UI/UX team's initiatives with the goals of the organization.
As the UI/UX manager I founded, hired and developed Backstop's UI/UX team while staying hands-on in all aspects of the design process for our software, websites, and mobile applications. I set project standards and timelines, as well as maintained interdepartmental relationships. I worked with my direct reports to establish career goals and verify productivity within weekly one-on-ones and monthly performance reviews.
