Bio

I began my journey with UX at Bentley University. I received my undergraduate degree in anthropology from James Madison University and have always had a desire to learn about people. I have a passion for science and healthcare and a knack for connecting with others. Following my undergraduate degree, I worked in property management where people are very vocal about what they do and do not want. I found myself always trying to think of new ways our property could stand out from the others and quickly developed skills in defining what type of customer I was working with.

​

From there, I made my way into the healthcare industry as a special projects coordinator for a non-profit organization. I was brought on to discover new ways to communicate educational information to both healthcare providers and patients. Having to accommodate two opposite "user" groups was both challenging and rewarding.

​

Through my education at Bentley, I have only increased my interest in finding out the who, what, why, where, when and how about people. With an interest in UX research, I hope to use my professional and educational skills to discover and improve the usablility of products and maybe improve lives along the way.
