about me

Career passions:

User experience design, user interface design, usability engineering, human factors, design leadership, psychology, and ethics. I’m goal-driven and do my best work with the big picture in mind. I pride myself on being an excellent problem solver, collaborator, and critical thinker.

Education background:

I finished a Master’s in Human-Computer Interaction (M. HCI) program at Iowa State University and graduated with a 4.0 GPA. Before that, I completed my undergrad at the University of Minnesota with a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology. I also have a certification in Web Design (HTML, CSS, & Javascript) from Minneapolis Community Technical College.

Personal interests:

I love music, food, art, animals, plants, rock climbing, golf, pickleball, camping, and boating. I enjoy learning new things- namely about design aesthetics, space exploration, aeronautics, and innovative healthcare technology. I’m a healthy mix of extroverted and introverted and feel I work well on a team or on my own as needed.
