Hi, I’m Shayna.


I turn complexity
into clarity.

I’m a UX leader who specializes in scaling design within complex, multi-division organizations — the kind where systems are fragmented, workflows are inconsistent, and teams lack the structure they need to move confidently.

Over the past decade, I’ve transformed those environments into high-performing design organizations by building enterprise design systems, operationalizing workflows, and partnering directly with executive leadership to embed UX into business strategy.

I don’t just build design systems — I build the governance, operating models, and organizational capability required to sustain them.

I’ve advanced UX maturity from Level 2 to Level 4, reduced design and technical debt, improved delivery velocity, and driven measurable engagement through AI-driven, data-informed experiences.

But the real impact is people.

I’ve coached designers into senior and principal roles, strengthened cross-functional trust, and created clarity where teams once struggled to align. Watching talented teams unlock their full impact is the most meaningful outcome of my work.

Outside of work, you’ll find me surfing, gaming, skateboarding, or building Halloween displays that probably belong in a theme park. Whether I’m scaling a design organization or crafting something immersive, I’m always creating structure that allows creativity to thrive.

I operate on three core principles

Values


Strategic Alignment

I partner with C-suite to embed UX into business strategy and product roadmaps — creating clarity, advancing maturity, and delivering measurable outcomes.

Systems That Scale

I lead through mentorship, succession planning, and growth — building environments where designers thrive and see their impact.
