With my natural curiosity for the needs of users, I am self-driven to find creative, data-backed solutions to met those needs.

I have five total years of research experience under my belt: three years of industry expertise, most recently @ Meta Reality Labs, improving the visual experience of AR/VR devices; plus two years of academic UX research, assisting PhD projects on computer supported cooperative work (CSCW) and crisis informatics.

My background lies in HCI + Data Science, with a B.S. in Human Centered Design & Engineering from the University of Washington.

I fought hard to get into this extremely selective program (acceptance rate = 0.05%, number of times I applied = 3!) and took advantage of every opportunity to collect a valuable set of technical and creative skills, which I continue to hone in my professional life!
