A Product and User Experience Researcher / Designer who advocates for inclusive yet unique design.

I've dedicated the past years to helping local family-owned and educational businesses connect with their audiences through accessible and distinctive designs. My journey began with a Bachelor's degree in Studio Art - Graphic Design from the University at Buffalo, a Research 1 institution.

I pursued independent research in User Experience Research and Design, collaborating closely with my mentor, Domenic J. Licata. Together, we not only earned online certifications but also advocated for the new User Experience Design course that recently launched at UB in spring 2024.

I had the pleasure to not only to experience this class first hand, but also apply these developed skill sets to help family owned businesses reach new found successes and strive for innovative thinking.

These experiences deepened my passion for researching and designing inclusive solutions that resonate with diverse audiences.
