About Me

 

I am a UX researcher and designer, passionate about solving complex business problems and creating cohesion throughout the broader user journey. I am experienced in leading team members in bigger-picture discovery work, as well as establishing UX processes and best practices on embedded product teams.

I’m a native Minnesotan, currently residing in St. Louis during my wife's residency in urology at Washington University Barnes Jewish Hospital. We are returning north to Duluth, Minnesota, this summer. I have a son, Calvin, and a chihuahua-terrier mix, Luna. In my free time you’ll find me outdoors, hiking and camping, spending time with my family, cooking, and occasionally doing some freelance graphic design.
