Case Studies

Designing success, one pixel at a time: with experience at Meta, Walmart, and more, I create high-performing teams that thrive on collaboration and innovation. My leadership focuses on attention to detail and empowering teams to bring their best ideas forward. Whether at a startup or a global brand, I prioritize strategic design thinking and clear communication, ensuring every project aligns with the bigger picture and drives results.
Management Philosophy
I don't ask my team to do anything I wouldn't do myself. Whether it's presenting to stakeholders or diving into user research, I'm in it with them.
Before offering solutions, I make space for my team's ideas and concerns. The best insights often come from the people closest to the work.
Micromanagement kills creativity. I hire great people and give them the autonomy to do their best work, then get out of the way.
Ambiguity breeds anxiety. I prioritize direct, honest communication so everyone knows where they stand and where we're going.

Briana is a fearless leader that empowers her team to do great work. I specially appreciate her transparency in times of adversity, as these are the times where we need more of her support. During the very stressful times of layoffs, she communicated in a transparent, constant, and supportive way, which in my observation, helped the team keep morale up and focus on the things we could control. As the layoffs happened and after, she continued checking on her team and making sure that we were all taking care of ourselves.
