A little bit about me

I have 7+ years of experience working on research and strategy projects in the UX design and branding space. Over the years, I’ve worked across e-commerce, healthcare, and fintech, among other industries. Recently, I’ve been working across both research and design.

With a background in a data-driven field and in the behavioural sciences, I love drawing from these different areas to solve problems in the dynamic world of UX. Day-to-day, I’m driven by the power of design and research to shape truly useful, inclusive and human-centred products.

In my free time, you’ll find me on a yoga mat, running (slowly), reading, writing, listening to podcasts (such a millennial)… the list goes on!
