Hello, I’m Caroline…
As a neurodivergent design leader, I’m passionate about blending the tangible and digital worlds through innovative technology. With a focus on humanity-centric design, emerging technologies, and scalable solutions, I’ve guided product strategies from concept to launch. I thrive on collaboration, bringing teams together to create meaningful, humanity-focused products and services. Always learning and growing, I’m eager to apply my experience in product management and UX design to deliver thoughtful, impactful solutions — while fostering environments where every being can flourish.
