My creative journey started when I was young in Maine, designing houses in the woods to help fairies. Now, I'm designing products in NYC to help people!
I graduated from Connecticut College as a CS major, English minor (ask me about reciting the Canterbury Tales in Middle English), and an Arts & Tech certificate program scholar. My multidisciplinary interests, passion for problem solving, and drive to help others led me to UX.
Post-grad, I joined Rapid7’s growth strategy UX rotational program and landed a full-time Web UX Engineer role afterwards. On every coding project, I found myself obsessing over the "Why?" - while I liked building solutions, I loved the process of designing solutions. After being impacted by layoffs, I took time to reflect on who I am and what I value, and all signs pointed back to UX and product design.
Currently, I am a Senior UX Designer at Chase on the CAMP PXT Libraries and Services team, working on all things design systems and standardization.
Other things that feel important to share about myself: I love to bake the NYT’s Gochujang cookie recipe, I always pick up heads-up pennies off the ground, I won "most dependable" in high school, I recently was in a ballet recital despite being an atrocious dancer (it was awesome), and I love to meet new people. Let's talk!
