About



👋 I'm Emily!

My journey into UX isn’t typical to that of most UX Designers. As a former Recruiter & Talent Lead turned UX Researcher & Designer, I bring both a scientific and creative mindset to product development. With an academic background in Psychology, I offer a strong, user-centric approach to the study of user needs and motivations. From executing fast-paced design sprints to transforming data into user-centered designs, I’m focused on creating dynamic, impactful work.

A graduate of Virginia Commonwealth University, I hold a Bachelor of Science in Psychology. Most recently, I completed the User Experience Design Immersive Program at General Assembly in New York.
