As an Associate Creative Director and mixed-methods designer, I bring a proven track record of conducting impactful research that drives informed design decisions. I champion the value of user research and leverage human-centered design principles to create and iterate products and services that align with real user needs and behaviors. My approach combines strategic vision with actionable insights to deliver meaningful and effective design outcomes.Outside of work, I am probably working on a renovation project or learning a new song on the keyboard.Portfolio: https://www.emilymariecarlson.com/
