A fascination with human behavior has informed every career decision I've made.My curiosities were officially piqued as an undergrad research assistant for the UConn psychology department. After I graduated, I was drawn to front-of-house restaurant work. A mythical world where I could get paid and harvest interpersonal stimulation as part of my job. Cut to: 11 years later, and this irresistible feedback loop has continued to enrich my fascination with human behavior.Despite the wonderful opportunities the restaurant industry has provided to me, I crave a more direct sense of agency at work and space to show off my creativity. UX Design is the logical synthesis of my sensibilities. I love being part of a team, and am highly motivated by team-oriented goals. I understand the value of collaborating with and learning from people who have completely different backgrounds from my own. I am very excited to get my UX career off the ground- be it as a designer, a researcher, or a writer. Please message me about any of this content. I appreciate new connections and would love to have a conversation!
