UX Leader & Senior UX Researcher

I turn ambiguous problems into clear decisions.

View My Work →

I'm a UX leader and mixed-methods researcher. I've spent my career turning messy, ambiguous problems into decisions that actually move products forward — across staffing, government, and higher education.

My work combines deep qualitative inquiry with behavioral data. Both tell different parts of the story. I'm equally comfortable running a remote diary study, facilitating a stakeholder alignment session, or coaching a junior researcher through their first moderated test.

When I'm not in the field, I'm thinking about how research teams can work with less friction — because good research that no one acts on is just expensive documentation.
