I’m a UX and design researcher who helps teams deeply understand the people they’re designing for, especially how they make decisions and what earns their trust.

My strength is making sense of human reality to create structured, actionable design and product insights. I’ve partnered with dozens of large tech, healthcare, and consumer brands to clarify what people need, what they fear, and what helps them move forward. At its core, my approach is built on a foundation of social science with additional training in human-centered design.

I care about building products that deserve trust, and about research that gives teams the confidence to design with intention.

Outside of work I’m:

• Running, hiking, and exploring with my cutie chocolate lab, Koda

• Winning games in my volleyball league

• Hosting craft nights

• Conducting very official research on Seattle’s best karaoke bar
