-			Throughout the years, I've made it all: small static charts, large featured

-			has its place, and choosing the right one for the job is a delicate, practical
-			art.
+			Each step of my career has been spent working in cross-functional capacities,
+			helping disparate teams communicate and collaborate on shared goals. Whether I'm
+			designing, developing, or just managing a project, I bring a vigorous
+			human-focused approach, keeping everyone's eyes on the final product. This
+			requires speaking technology with content creators and content creation with
+			technologists, cutting through friction so work moves forward without bottlenecks.

-			Whether the solution is a few carefully chosen words or something more, the goal
-			always is to distill mountains of information into meaningful and empowering
-			experiences. This makes repeat customers out of media consumers.
+			Knowing when to collaborate, delegate, and run solo is an important skill. Success
+			requires juggling the needs of multiple audiences on multiple platforms on
+			deadline, and being a quick study who can ramp up and ship without a lengthy
+			runway.

 		<p>
-			For starters, I work well with others. As a group, we need to discover our true
-			goals, define them clearly, and consider our resources. A well-scoped project is
-			important to success and, when it comes to data management, app architecture and
-			inclusive design, I always try to do things the "right way" within that scope.
