I know how to turn personal insight into collective strength. I can spot where teams lose time, run scrappy experiments, and scale what works beyond my own lane. And when the field shifts, I shift first.
AI isn't replacing designers. Designers who use AI will replace designers who don't.
That became my operating thesis when I started looking at where designers actually spend their time. The answer: a lot of it isn't design thinking. It's synthesis, documentation, alignment, and translation - the connective tissue that holds a process together but rarely moves it forward.
I started experimenting with Bob, IBM's internal AI agent platform, to see how much of that connective tissue could be offloaded, or at least accelerated.
