About Me
Born and raised in the “cheesiest” state of them all, I am a Wisconsin native living in the Madison area. I’m currently working for Ford Credit as a UX Researcher/Product Designer, where I explore ways to improve the experience for vehicle owners just like you and me.
I typically spend my days strategizing the next research study or collaborating with product managers. But, I also love getting into the nitty-gritty of design critiques with my colleagues and exploring alternative design solutions for existing products.
In my career, I am most successful when I work in a culture that values communication and attention to detail. I enjoy working alongside managers and developers where ideas can be shared collaboratively throughout the product development process (a good-natured sense of humor helps too.) I’m always looking to broaden my skill set and continually seek to provide value to my team.
During my personal time, you’ll find me running, gardening, and chasing after my 2 yr. old. I strive to treat every experience as a chance to learn something new and look to surround myself with people who work hard and inspire me to do the same.
