About Me, According To...
…Fozzie brings a strong design toolkit, a collaborative mindset, excellent taste and a natural sense of ownership to everything she does. Your team would be lucky to have her.
Steve McMahon
Lead Product Designer
…What really stood out was Fozzie’s ability to zoom in and out—digging into details with precision in her feature work, while also helping elevate how our team collaborated and shared work. By bringing thoughtful structure to our design critiques and revamping our cross-functional product team’s monthly showcases, she single-handedly made our team ceremonies more engaging, rewarding and, as a result, valuable for everyone involved…

…Throughout her time at Rocket, Fozzie was highly resilient and flexible in the face of change, whether it was about feature priority, scope, our understanding of user needs, or anything else.

The Principles That Guide Me
Roll with the punches
You're cool under pressure. When change comes, be adaptable and help where you can while remaining persistent in advocating for the needs of you and your team.
Cultivate creativity
You find opportunities, they don't find you. When you actively identify avenues for growth in yourself and your organization, then explore impactful solutions, you will always be creating!
Do it again, and again, and again
You don't get it right the first time, even if you think you do. Push yourself to keep iterating until you don't have any ideas left. Then go look for more.
