SimplyWell was a workplace wellness technology company; rooted in care and focused on reducing health risks, our innovative experience empowered users to take ownership of their health. Upon joining the company, I assumed both client and consumer product experience responsibility. Driving digital transformation and innovation, we worked inside-out to reimagine the consumer experience intent & purpose, allowing for greater consumer engagement and value to the business. This created a fundamental shift across the business for how we positioned ourselves in the market, how we invested, how technology evolved, how we communicated to consumers, how we serviced the client, and finally - how we measured and assessed the impact of our digital products.

My product organization delivered on strategic initiatives, opportunities and roadmaps; positioning the business for growth and scale. We provided thought leadership and transformational plans needed to position M&A opportunities that compliment and strengthened our place in the industry. We successfully changed the trajectory of the business generating positive EBITDA, thus allowing SimplyWell to be acquired by the largest service provider in the Wellness Industry (Virgin Pulse) in November of 2018.

Past

Verizon delivers second to none communication services, networks, products, and platforms for all walks of life around enterprise, professional and personal needs. After joining Verizon Labs Corporate Technology Organization, I contributed on both enterprise and consumer products including: Healthcare, Big Data Analytics, Interactive Entertainment (FiOS), Conferencing and Communications, and Networking solutions. I stood up lean and efficient creative teams to support existing and new product efforts - at times having my teams engaged in 5+ new product initiatives. Serving as creative leadership and influence, my teams' partnered with product & development teams with a UCD approach, and sound creative process every step of the way. We strived for better understanding of the business problems we were solving, grasp of the user's needs and desires, and used design as a tool to draw the visceral impact. I also led creative and innovative thought sessions - producing dozens of ideas each quarter. This activity led to securing several patents for Verizon during my tenure.
