My Background

My curiosity about how people experience the world guided me through undergraduate degrees in fine arts and digital humanities, where I studied digital anthropology, information architecture, and web design. I went on to complete a Master's in Human-Computer Interaction at DePaul University.

After graduating I joined Bold Insight, a UX research consultancy, where I spent four years leading mixed-methods research across healthcare, consumer technology, and enterprise products.

Outside of work I love learning about neuroscience, upcycling furniture, and exploring cities.

My Process

I use the double diamond model, moving between divergent and convergent thinking to make sure I understand the problem deeply before jumping to solutions. I believe gaining a proper understanding of user needs early is the single best way to reduce risk and cost down the line.

I'm a UX researcher based in Chicago with 4+ years of experience in research consulting. I've led studies for enterprise clients including Google, WhatsApp, Eli Lilly, and AbbVie.

I specialize in embedded research: getting close to product teams, building research programs that fit how teams actually work, and making sure findings translate into action instead of sitting in a report.
