UX Designer

My background…

My career began in opera, where communicating clearly required understanding both the material and the audience. In UX, I bring that same attention to how people experience a product.


What shapes my thinking…

As a Nielsen Norman Group UX Master Certified 

professional, I bring a data-informed foundation to every challenge. I'm addicted to continuous learning, and I'm constantly refining my approach to provide simple answers to difficult problems.


Mentoring designers…

As a career changer, I know what it's like to transition into UX without real world context. I now mentor designers navigating their careers in UX.


Outside of work…

Outside of design, you can find me spending time with my family, skiing, working out or tackling renovations on my pre-WWI house.


How opera made me a better UX designer

In opera, individual preparation matters, but the performance depends on how well people work together. You have to bring a considered interpretation, listen closely, and respond to others. That experience shaped how I contribute to a design team, bringing my own perspective while working toward a shared result.
