Lisa Costanzo Wilkins
UX Design, Product Strategy
For 17+ years I have been a user experience director, designer and product strategist. I build seamless experiences and solve complex problems across multiple platforms. I create concept-to-completion products and features influenced by market analytics, user-testing & business objectives. I value a team’s radical candor and productive criticism. Successful projects provide objective–based solutions delivering effortless experiences while exceeding user expectations.
Bringing clear thinking to complexity
Simple is the hardest thing to be, but is a beautiful challenge, it’s why inspiring coaches, tech magnates and songwriters repeat a variation of this sentiment when talking about their process. Distilling convoluted user journeys, organizing content, or unravelling business requirements into foundational components provides value beyond the project scope. Delivering easy, memorable experiences is insanely satisfying.

Building for scale & flexibility
Solutions for NOW are valuable. Solutions for LATER pays you back. Keeping flexibility, scalability and malleableness top-of-mind creates systems that bend and grow with user and business needs. Understanding the tech stack, and building for future expansion, sets up the team, and the product, for success.

Learn, pivot, improve
I encourage building environments where teams can think critically, practice deductive reasoning, and speak candidly allowing us to grow together. From that foundation we prove out hypothesis with market analysis, usability testing, and data insights to build impactful products.
Unified purpose
I’ve been blessed to have worked with and mentored by some of the best design leaders in the nation. Years ago a presentation by Sara Fortier set my sites on the North Star Principals. As a director, designer, and team member, I bring North Star Principles to my projects for all involved. With a single unified focus and messaging strategy cross-collaboration is made consistent and predictable.
Leading by example

WCAG Advocate
Inclusivity and accessibility built into each project as early as possible.
