About Me
I am a UX researcher with a deep fascination for the dynamic relationship between human psychology and technology. I bring diverse experience, having worked in roles as a UX Researcher, Technical Writer, Event Marketer, and Sales Strategist.
With a solid academic foundation in Digital Media Communications and UX/UI Design, I have a track record of delivering practical solutions with tight deadlines.
My mission is to create tech interfaces based on human experiences. I do this by compiling data and distilling it into easy-to-understand information for stakeholders. Every click tells a story, and I turn that story into intuitive design solutions.
