"I have 17 years experience in the UX field. For the past 4 years I have exclusively been a UX instructor, developing and teaching lessons to adult learners; although I have tutored, mentored, and taught short lessons to peers and junior designers throughout my career as a practitioner.

I'm a question asker, problem solver, and storyteller, and I'm passionate about developing and empowering others.

I'm passionate about storytelling and have been a member of the Toastmasters International public speaking organization for over 10 years. I have won several speaking awards at the Club, Area, and Division levels.

I received my Bachelors in Computer Science from Georgia Tech, and a Masters in Human Computer Interaction from Carnegie Mellon. I have spent the past 17 years executing on responsibilities of UX research, testing, information architecture, interaction design, and UI/visual design. I am skilled in countless exploratory and evaluative methods, as well as wireframing, prototyping, accessibility testing, facilitation, etc.

I would love to help you:

- Improve your knowledge and skills in a particular UX methodology or process, provide feedback/critique on a design, give guidance on a project, or grow you in any way in your User Experience journey.

OR

- Help you prepare for a speaking engagement in terms of content or delivery, provide direction in areas you may struggle with, or provide feedback on any kind of talk." less...
