Senior Product Designer | UX Specialist

With a robust background in International Relations from Boston University and a certificate in User Experience Design from Designlab, I have honed my skills as a Senior Product Designer. My career began with contract roles at Syntheus and BEAM Interactive, where I developed UX/UI solutions for diverse industries. At NGP VAN, I advanced from Product Designer to Senior Product Designer, enhancing CRM systems for non-profit fundraising and organizing. I created a design strategy toolkit and improved UX writing to standardize voice and tone. Currently, at Breezeway, I contribute to user-centric product design, collaborating with cross-functional teams to enhance user experience. My expertise includes customer discovery, competitive research, journey mapping, prototyping, and usability testing, ensuring seamless integration of design and functionality.
