Passionate UX/UI Designer with Geology Background
With a Bachelor's degree in Geology and Water Resources from SUNY Oneonta and an Associate of Science degree from Orange County Community College, I have a strong foundation in science. My experience as a Geologist at Johnson, Mirmiran & Thompson involved environmental report generation and managing remediation projects. As a Staff Scientist at Spectra Environmental Group, Inc., I gained valuable insights into the environmental sector. Recently, I completed the UX/UI Career Track at Springboard, mastering skills in information architecture, wireframing, prototyping, and more. My role as a User Interface Designer at Sustie allowed me to contribute to sustainable fashion initiatives by designing online tools and communication strategies. I am passionate about merging my scientific background with my design expertise to create innovative solutions.

SustieJun 2023 - Jun 2023 • 1 moAssist sustie in designing and testing an online tool to empower, educate and inspire fashion lovers to reimagine the future of fashion by making sustainable decisions when shopping online. susie was looking for help designing a 'product card' that sustainable clothing brands could incorporate into their e-commerce sites to showcase the sustainability efforts associated with a specific item of clothing. sustie also tasked us with designing post-purchase follow up communication that would let consumers know about (and track) the positive environmental impact associated with their purchase. We interviewed sustainable clothing brands that work with sustie to determine what brands considered to be important both informationally and aesthetically. We also surveyed potential consumers to determine what drives people to shop sustainably, i.e. what information could we provide in a condensed and understandable way that would incentivize conversion? Using this data, and with the help of another UI intern, I was able to design a product card and post-purchase communication that was more likely to increase conversion, while still being able to be incorporated into any brands aesthetic.
