(01)

Frame the problem

I start by scoping what's actually being asked, setting goals and research questions before I commit to a method.

(02)

Research

Interviews, competitive analysis, and contextual research to understand real behavior, not assumed behavior.

(03)

Design & validate

Findings turn into requirements and prototypes, then get tested with real people before I call anything done.

(04)

Communicate

Making the reasoning behind decisions clear to stakeholders.

I started in a neuroscience lab studying emotion and memory, then followed that into UX: how does the way a mind works shape the way it uses a product? I gravitate toward healthcare and mental health work, where getting that question right can actually change how someone manages their care.
