I turn research into experiences people actually enjoy using. From VR usability studies to React interfaces, I bridge the gap between insights and implementation.

About me

Mindset, methods, & experience

What I do

I help teams understand their users and turn those insights into interfaces that are intuitive, accessible, and built to last.

Background

I'm currently pursuing my Master's in HCI at Indiana University Indianapolis (GPA 3.9). I've conducted 30+ user interviews, led VR usability studies, and built front-end components in React, bridging research and implementation across both sides of the design process.

My Approach

I believe good design starts with listening. I ask the right questions, dig into the research, and only then start designing because the best interfaces are the ones built on real understanding, not assumptions.

Process

How I approach every problem

01

I start by listening. Through user interviews and research, I uncover the real problem before jumping to any solutions.

02

I translate findings into structure sitemaps, user flows, and wireframes that make the logic clear before the visuals.

03

I build prototypes and test them with real users. Usability metrics and observations drive every iteration.

04

I work closely with developers and can build in React myself to make sure the final interface matches the research intent.

04

I guide projects from concept to launch, helping teams build scalable systems & maintain consistent brand experiences.

What I Bring

Skills built in the real world

UX Research
Conducting interviews, usability tests, and SUS analyses that turn real user behaviour into clear design direction.
Interaction Design
Translating research findings into wireframes, Figma prototypes, and high-fidelity interfaces grounded in user needs.
XR Interfaces
Designing and testing VR/XR experiences on Meta Quest, from gaze-based input to controller interaction flows.
Front-End Development
Building accessible, responsive interfaces in React and TypeScript, so designs don't lose their intent in handoff.
