About

I spent eight years teaching middle school before moving into UX. Teaching taught me to explain clearly, to watch where people get stuck and to change the lesson, not blame the student. Those habits transfer directly to design. I completed a UX certificate, then an internship at an education start-up, and I am now looking for a junior role where I can keep learning from experienced designers. I am strongest in research, wireframing and usability testing.
