A bit about me
I believe technology should empower people. In tackling business challenges, I focus on designing experiences that instill confidence in users while driving meaningful outcomes for organizations.
My background in business strategy and user-centered design gives me a unique approach to creating impactful solutions. Additionally, from my years in theater, I learned how empowering confidence can be—a lesson I bring into product management and UX design to create experiences that resonate both functionally and emotionally.
At Carnegie Mellon, I’ve worked on projects that bridge business and design, such as developing AI strategies and solutions, conducting user research, and mapping customer journeys. I’m dedicated to delivering thoughtful, user-driven solutions that align with both user needs and business goals.
Outside of work, I have lots of hobbies! I love to read, golf, sing, race go-karts, find geocaches, try out crafts, and solve puzzles (especially escape rooms).
A cat mom to my wonderfully-cuddly sink-obsessed kitty, Red
Taking a pierogi-making class in Poland
Loving the theater, for as long as I can remember
Checking things off my bucket list, like kissing the Blarney Stone
And swimming with the manatees in Crystal River!
Obsessing over being on the set of Gilmore Girls
I love where I grew up - NH is beautiful! (Artist's Bluff)
"Are there any geocaches nearby?"
In my happy place: on the golf course
Exploring Vlkolínec, Slovakia (where my family is from)
Adventuring in Ireland (Giant's Causeway)
Enjoying family traditions like summer blueberry picking
