- Leading engagements by providing the client and team with direction, guidance, and support
- Being collaborative and ego-free with the ability to give and receive feedback to and from all team members regardless of their role or level.
- Designing, prototyping and building products used by people every day.

- You respond well to change and in an innovative environment.
- You're passionate about your craft and you're eager to help progress other designers' careers.

- Confident working closely with external clients
