about me

I'm a researcher & designer with a background in psychology, human-computer interaction (HCI) and 5+ years in marketing. I've spent my career trying to understand one thing: how people think, decide, and trust.

My work in behavioral research, usability studies, and human-AI interaction helps teams understand what users need and why, and what that means for systems that are becoming harder to understand, predict, and trust.
