Hey there, I'm Maggie. A Product Design & Creative leader with over a decade of experience crafting user-driven design strategies for top product companies.
As VP, Product Design & Creative at LTK (formerly rewardStyle & LIKEtoKNOW.it), I lead a high-performing team of product designers, creatives, engineers, and researchers in shaping the future of LTK's products and experiences serving a global user base of customers, creators, and brands. In my work, I utilize my skills and knowledge in both human-centered design and visual/brand communications to solve complex design problems and organizational challenges. As a design leader, I strive to foster an environment of creativity and collaboration to bring out the best in my team using a combination of empathy, business strategy, and process optimization. I fundamentally believe that design can drive business and should be inclusive and accessible for all.

When I'm not designing, I enjoy spinning a pottery wheel, doing yoga, cooking, and spending time with my husband, kids, & always entertaining french bulldog, Louis XIV.
