EXPERIENCE DESIGNER + RESEARCHER

I'm a formally trained software engineer who taught herself design, then made it official. Now I build consumer experiences driven by intention, story, and the belief that good design should work for everyone.

I leverage 3+ years of experience researching and designing across startups and B2C products at scale. Most recently, researching accessible AI interactions @Google.
