ABOUT ME

I started my career in healthcare as an Athletic Trainer.  While I enjoyed my years in this field, I began to feel the need to challenge myself in another field where I could use my passion for helping people in a more creative way.  Athletic Training has laid the foundation for my natural empathy for others and desire to help improve the products around them to provide a more intuitive experience.  I ultimately decided to pursue my Master's degree in UX as it allowed me to perfectly marry my past career and desire to help others, with my future goals of expanding my knowledge in a more creative, technology focused field.  

​

As a passionate and detail-oriented professional, I enjoy approaching complex projects with a holistic approach. A large part of my success while working with people stems from my ability to cultivate an intuitive understanding of their needs, and spearhead the project from there. Have a look at the work I’ve done in the past, and get in touch to learn more.

Malone University

The Malone University web team recently redesigned the schools website; however, the structure of the new website has left users frustrated with the disjointed experience they have attempting to find information while navigating the site.  In an effort to explore where the new design was failing users, Malone desired to employ user research to discover the key site issues affecting user’s ability to find the information they desire on the site.
