My user centered approach to design

I enjoy learning about user needs and engaging in usability research. I believe that human-centered design and technology can create meaningful solutions for the under-served.

My goal on any project is to build trust with users via engaging experiences and clear communication.

Current position:
SR. User Experience Engineer

I currently work at Draper Laboratory as a Sr. User Experience Engineer in the AI, Human, and Data Technologies division. I'm part of a team designing usable, engaging, modern, and intuitive interfaces for a variety of projects, ranging from big data analytics, to aerospace displays and controls, to multi-person collaborative systems on both desktop computers and mobile devices.

I design for users in high cognitive workload situations, users attempting to solve complex data problems (including data visualization and overcoming cognitive bias), and users working in safety critical operations.
