I'm a UX Researcher based in San Diego with a background in Cognitive Science and Speculative Design. I hold a Master's in Human Centered Design and Engineering from the University of Washington.
At Sony Electronics, I conduct accessibility and digital imaging research — running end-to-end studies across blind, low-vision, deaf, and mobility-impaired participant populations. My work there has informed regulatory compliance decisions, pre-launch product direction, and international product strategy presented to Sony leadership in Japan.
Before Sony, I led a moderated usability study at Amazon Business evaluating a financial feature ahead of launch. Earlier research experience includes the MIT Media Lab and Blink UX, across hardware, enterprise software, and healthcare contexts.
I'm drawn to research that carries real organizational stakes, where findings have to travel across product, engineering, legal, and leadership audiences and still land clearly.
