As a User Experience Designer with a background in financial analysis, I bring a unique perspective to my work. My experiences in thinking analytically, finding the story behind the data, and collaborating cross functionally to convey that story, allow me to thoughtfully see past the surface, dive deep, and really get to the why. 
All of this, combined with my bias towards action and drive to create an impact allows me to truly bring forward human-centered solutions.

Skills: Design Strategy | Data Synthesis | Wireframing | Prototyping | User Research
