User Experience
Researcher

At the University of Chicago, I majored in comparative human development. This interdisciplinary social and behavioral sciences degree allowed me to take a broad range of courses in psychology, anthropology, sociology, research methodology, statistics, and more. Through my coursework, I developed a passion for studying human behavior.

At Digitas, a global digital marketing agency, I worked as a Creative Strategist and Project Manager across eight CPG accounts. In these roles, I led small- to large-scale projects and conducted research to identify target audiences, uncover consumer insights, develop personas, create customer journey maps, and more. These experiences helped me build a skill set that is fundamental to my work as a UX Researcher.

I attended graduate school to study human-computer interaction through a psychological lens. As a master’s student in psychology at the University of Cambridge, I conducted an independent, qualitative study exploring smart speaker use and psychological well-being among older adults to grow our understanding of technology's ability to meet the needs of an aging population.

At Bold Insight, a UX and human factors research agency, I lead in-person and remote studies for a wide variety of clients. I specialize in qualitative research methods, including in-depth interviews, usability testing, contextual inquiries, diary studies, and more. Through generative and evaluative research, my work spans the entire product development process.
