What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead user-centered design and content strategy for large-scale, regulated digital products, collaborate cross-functionally, and drive measurable impact.

I am a strategic UX designer and content strategist with 8+ years creating user-centered solutions for large-scale digital products that serve millions. I lead cross-functional teams, conduct comprehensive user research, and translate complex user needs into accessible, engaging experiences.

At Booz Allen Hamilton I led UX strategy and content design for government digital products impacting 12M+ users and 400K healthcare providers, established scalable content infrastructures, and drove accessibility and design standards across multiple product lines.

As founder of a UX consultancy and through roles at USAA and the Texas Education Agency, I delivered measurable business impact via research-driven design, design systems, and stakeholder management, consistently improving user experience and operational performance.
