I love digging into research to design solutions that create meaningful impact for both the user and the business .

Hi I’m Julie, a NYC based UX/Product Designer with a passion for bridging the gap between the customer’s needs and business goals. I came to UX by way of fashion where I thrived on designing creative solutions that merged style and function. I enjoy using critical thinking and collaborating with my cross-functional team towards the common goal of creating products that the customer loves and exceeds their expectations. I take the same approach with UX in designing products that impact and improve people’s lives while also creating value for the business.
