A centralized kiosk synced with a mobile app that improves physical library wayfinding through interactive maps and navigation. Achieved 70% faster navigation and a 64% ease-of-use improvement across user testing.
A mobile app that diagnoses plant diseases via real-time scans and provides comprehensive care tracking. Addresses the fact that 24% of Americans cannot keep a houseplant alive for more than six months.
A mobile app that acts as a central hub for researchers to create events and opportunities for students to discover and join. 73% of surveyed college students were unaware of research opportunities in high school.
I work at the intersection of design, systems thinking, and operations analysis. I specialize in identifying inefficiencies in workflows and rebuilding processes from the ground up to make them more efficient, scalable, and intuitive.
I approach problems by first breaking down how a system actually functions, then redesigning it to remove friction and improve clarity. In previous roles, I've built and optimized Excel-based workflows and operational systems to streamline processes and improve day-to-day efficiency.
Alongside my operations experience, I bring a strong foundation in UX and product design, allowing me to translate complex systems into user-centered experiences. I'm particularly interested in roles in UX research, UX engineering, product design, and product/operations management where I can combine systems thinking with design to build better tools and workflows.
Have a project, a problem, or want to connect? I'm always up for a good conversation about design, research, and product.
