I’m a freelance product design researcher, specializing in strategic qualitative research. I thrive in complexity and uncertainty and love working with teams to use research and synthesis to make better design and product decisions.
I bring clarity to teams through rigorous qualitative research. We'll work together to uncover a deep understanding of current and prospective users, their behaviors, attitudes and needs.
Through collaborative research planning, strategic study design and targeted recruiting, we’ll design studies that uncover nuanced insights that change the way you think about your product and mission.
