Hello!

A little bit about me:

👋 I’m currently a senior undergraduate student at Pomona College, majoring in Sociology with a concentration in Human-Centered Design, and minoring in Economics. I’m interested in understanding human behavior and learning to amplify the power of people in organizations, technology, and education—focusing on an equitable human-centered approach through UX Research!

Coming from an international background, I want to consider why users think, act, and thus behave in ways that are affected by their diverse contexts. Paired with my sociology background, I aim to find unfamiliar solutions in familiar contexts.

What have I done? As a qualitative UX researcher with mixed methods skills, I have over 3 years of research experience, including in cross-functional SaaS teams, large corporate teams in agile and ShapeUp, research grants for self-initiated projects, volunteer projects in San Francisco, consulting projects for tech startups, and community-based projects. Certified by Google and Userzoom, I bring my international-minded background to center an empathy-first approach into UX research!
