I’m a Senior UX Researcher and Strategist, with a background in Human-Computer Interaction, Anthropology, and Participatory Research. Insatiably curious, I love learning with/from folks to build things that delight users and drive profitability for businesses. The thing has taken many forms: microfinance tech for refugees, bespoke escape rooms, B2B business tools, AI tools for biologists, and most recently summer camp software. Diverse industries, I know! What can I say- I’m curious, agile, and always down for a new challenge.

I’ve covered the mixed-method research gamut over my 8+ years in mix, and feel equally at ease observing behaviors as a “fly on the wall” as I do delivering strategic insights to CEOs. Be it 0>1 product discovery, evaluative statistics, or strategic insight scaling, I’m your gal.
