About me
I'm a Games User Experience Designer and Producer from Ann Arbor, Michigan, with experience in full pipeline UX/UI design for games and project management in startups + non-profits. My UX practice is founded on modern principles of intentional accessiblity, an HCI psychology baseline, and driving iteration with user-research and playtesting. With my skill set I sit at the intersection of user flow design, visual system architecture and business operations, making me a potent force for any team that needs to bridge the gap between creative, tech and management either in UX design or production roles.
I learned UX research and design from the cutting edge of the field at the University of Michigan's School of Information. I believe in intentional inclusivity in design: that you find the best inspiration for design by engaging with the communities you are designing for. I'm also a big believer that while good UX can feel "invisible", great UX adds positive sensation and momentum to the games they inhabit. If you feel like these principles may align with your project, I'd love to hear from you!

Preferably in Adobe Suite. I probably say “Gestalt” too much, but that's because it's a fun word to say.
