A Bit About Me
I am a Remote UX Designer and Researcher based in the Syracuse area, where I blend human factors research with strategic design to build intuitive, large-scale solutions. My approach is rooted in a background in Industrial Design and Sustainability, allowing me to view digital products through a lens of both functional precision and long-term impact.
​
With a deep focus on enterprise environments and complex workflows, I specialize in translating technical jargon and intricate logistical journeys into seamless user experiences. Whether I’m conducting interactive user sessions or building advanced design systems in Figma, my goal is to bridge the gap between business strategy and human-centered design.
