A Little About Me

As a designer, I believe in focusing on the user's experience above all else. I feel my job is to be their voice to the business and to focus on solving their needs, especially those users who fall off the "happy path". I love collaborating with partners from business and development teams to find the best possible solutions for the users. I use an iterative process to work, as there are always lessons to be learned and refinements to be made for a successful, usable experience. 

​

As a person, I'm a Midwesterner now living in the Pacific Northwest. I love spending time outside enjoying the sounds of nature- I could listen to birds chirping and frogs croaking all day long! I also love spending time indoors with my dogs, books, and prolific TV and movie collection. I'm happy to give recommendations!

I advocate that mental health is health, that neurodiversity should be celebrated, for Native American rights (I'm Santee Sioux), LGBTQIA+ rights, animal rights, and environmental causes.
