Nice to meet you.
Me, in a nutshell.
I'm a Boston based, strategic UX designer with over 7 years of experience. As a strategic UX designer, I prioritize observing and questioning before taking action. I regularly challenge assumptions and ensure that every element incorporated into the product serves a purpose. With my user-centric approach and vast experiences, I bring valuable insights to the table.
My approach.
I am passionate about problem-solving and approach problems with patience and strategy. Rather than simply accepting what's given, I take the time to investigate the root causes and understand the current mitigation efforts. Once root issues are identified, I believe in collaborative efforts to define what success looks like. So much of this job happens before design even begins, and if this work is done right, so much time and effort will be saved.
Working with me.
I don’t take myself too seriously but I do take my work seriously. I have fun at my job and bring positivity wherever I go. Cultivating strong working relationships has helped me make meaningful friendships, enrich company culture, and improve work quality.
Get in touch.
