A little about me: a human who loves design
For the past 4 years (6 years if you include internships and volunteer roles), I've been thrilled to use my problem-solving, active listening and anthropology skills to plan and facilitate user testing and be able to use feedback to change my designs.
I’m also passionate in sharpening skills by attending webinars, taking online courses, participating local UX meet ups and volunteering in different design projects!
In 2016, I received an AAS degree in Web/UX Design from the Minneapolis Community and Technical College. I also hold a BA in Anthropology from the University of Minnesota, Duluth, where I graduated from 2012.
When I’m not designing, I love spending time around the Twin Cities with my fiancé at restaurants, parks (dog parks included) and walking around the Chain of Lakes. I love running, biking, going to arcades, playing bar/brunch trivia and showering my two Chihuahua mixes with love and hugs!
