I'm Leslie and I'm passionate about building great products that improve people's lives and communities.

Currently, I'm a design manager at OpenTable. I really enjoy being at a product company that provides tools that help restaurants plan and succeed in business and hospitality. 

Previously I was at Pivotal Labs, where I shipped 9 products in 3 years. I went into consulting to work on a diverse range of web and mobile projects and to collaborate with companies of all sizes, from one-person startups to big enterprise. 

What I’ve learned is how to translate user pains into validated solutions, work in an agile and lean environment, drive feature prioritization, practice increasingly complicated systems thinking, all while managing a diverse set of clients, stakeholders, and team dynamics. 

When I'm not in front of the computer, you can find me starting art clubs at work and in my free time for lettering and watercoloring.
