What do I do?

Define and solution for business and user problems through empathic design and user feedback. Think holistically about the system at hand in order to solve wide-ranging problems.

How did I get here?

My background in graphic design is what led me to a user-centered approach with problem solving. It began at the University of Illinois at Champaign-Urbana where I chose to take a Human-Centered Design class (Shout out Deana McDonagh!) full of industrial designers. Being surrounded by a different way of thinking helped me learn how to take a step back and see the larger user needs and business impact.
