ABOUT ME

Many say this, but I mean it: I've been curious since birth. My parents were relieved when I was old enough to pester Google with my questions instead of them. In college, that curiosity turned into research, from fruit fly embryos in the lab to thieving baboons in Tanzania. It also left me with a nagging question: does science even matter if it isn't communicated well? The answer came quickly: nope.

So I became obsessed with communicating science. I started out writing health articles that broke complex research into bite-sized pieces, and the more I got into my readers' heads, the more I wanted to design for them from the start. That pulled me into UX research, starting at a relationship startup where I helped shape the product from day one. Since then I've led research at XCELab, RVO Health (including early work on what became Healthline AI), and now Sanofi.

I'm happiest where UX research, behavioral science, and product design meet. That's where I get to make things that work for people, not the other way around. My favorite part of any project is the moment a diary study, a behavioral science paper, and a partner's findings suddenly point the same way. From there, I turn that pattern into a framework the team keeps using long after the project wraps.
