I started in the tech industry in 1996 - when I co-founded a Web design & development company. Since then I've continued to work on various Web, app and custom software projects for a variety of companies big and small. I’ve also worked in production and post-production in the film and TV world, and done user research in the video game industry.
I am currently a Sr. User Experience Researcher working on 3D & Immersive software (AR/VR) at Adobe.
I am an active member of the Seattle UX Community and am a past Board Chair of the Puget Sound Special Interest Group in Human-Computer Interaction. I’m also a proud alumni of the Human Centered Design and Engineering Master’s Program at the University of Washington.
In my free time I enjoy travel, various PNW outdoor adventures (biking, hiking, camping), playing video games and both creating and consuming art (photography, movies, dance and theater).
