ABOUT ME
I'm a mixed-method researcher with 10+ years of experience studying human behavior. I have expertise in all phases of the research process, including study design, participant recruitment, data analysis, synthesis, and presentation. I leverage my skills in quantitative and qualitative methods to develop actionable insights that drive product strategy.
Before becoming a UX Researcher, I received a PhD in Psychology. My academic research used interdisciplinary methods from social, cognitive, and vision science to understand and alleviate prejudice.
