Based in Austin
Hello! I'm a product design manager at Visa, focusing on security and identity experiences. Previously, I worked on Apple Podcasts, and before that I was at Vox Media on the product and brand design teams. I have also have agency and startup experience, which has given me opportunities to work with a wide variety of industries, disciplines and stakeholders.
Senior Design Manager at Visa
“Courtney was great at providing examples to illustrate her discussion points. She was knowledgeable, willing to answer questions and always showed me ways I could improve. She also made sure to provide positive reinforcement along the way as well. Great experience.”
- Krystal P, Design 101
“Courtney really pushed me to put forth my best work. She saw that I was willing to do the work, that I had a passion for it, and that I was ready to learn. She kept pushing me to explore further, dive deeper, and keep producing iterations. This caused me to learn so much faster than just getting a quick check mark on my work. I appreciate her advice and the conversations we had. She was an awesome mentor.”
- Brittany M, Branding
“Courtney is an amazing mentor - positive, thoughtful, communicative, and knowledgeable. I can see how much I grew in just four short weeks working with her. I hope to pair with Courtney for the UX Academy!”
- Christine S, UI Design
“Courtney was so great to work with! See was very flexible with our sessions and always gave great feedback. Her feedback pushed me to improve my designs and question my design decisions. She also gave great advice about design careers and what to look for in the future.”
- Aaron W, Design 101
“Very professional, knowledgeable and helpful. I only had 2 sessions with her, as a project came up at work. I would have liked to have been able to extend the time during which I could work with her, since I was unable to finish the course in the 4 weeks alotted. ”
- Jori R, UX Research & Strategy
“Courtney offered helpful feedback and resources. Rather than giving me a simple solution, she provided me with the tools to work through problems and use my own judgment. She also commented on my progress during the class, so it was nice to know that she noticed my development from project to project.”
- Maia H, Design 101
“Courtney was super helpful - asking questions in a way that would make me think further in my work and providing additional resources to help me get familiar with the different processes learned in the course. ”
