Overview

I am a user experience leader who believes good design is a public service. Through user-centered design methods, I create cohesive, consistent and purposeful digital design solutions. I conduct user research and usability testing, and I create wireframes, prototypes, templates and visual designs that follow UX best practices. I have hired and managed UX designers and user researchers, and I build team morale through collaborative touchpoints and knowledge-sharing. To find out more, view my résumé and portfolio.

Creative Leadership

I have managed UX designers and user researchers, and often coach peers through collaborative efforts to build team maturity and morale. I “lead alongside” in cross-functional project teams and with stakeholders.

UX Design

I’m a user experience expert and visual design practitioner for public-facing websites, internal digital tools, mobile apps and touch surfaces. I design with user-centered design methods and best practices in UX and accessibility.

User Research

I plan and conduct user research studies and usability tests using many methods. I share insights that inform user-centered design solutions. I create research documentation and advise colleagues on user-centered best practices.

About Me

I approach user experience through years of designing for humans, who are just trying to make it through the day in an ever-complex digital world. We can make things better! I’ve worked in cultural institutions, news and media. My favorite places are museums, libraries and parks. I like to read and volunteer in my community. Dogs are the best.
