My capacity to connect with research participants, communicate with internal and external stakeholders, and present data insights effectively adds value to any UX team.

I am pursuing a career transition to User Experience Design as I would like to translate my skills to a faster paced and technology-driven environment. I also feel that I would be able to enact greater positive social change outside of academia.

As a Clinical Research Coordinator, I developed strong empathy, problem-solving, and communication skills that translate directly to the UX design process. I worked closely with participants and stakeholders from varied backgrounds, learning how to approach problems with resourcefulness, synthesize insights, and advocate for study participants while considering stakeholder needs.

I believe that my empathy, curiosity, and desire to create social change, paired with an expanding foundation in UX design, will allow me to create experiences that are not only functional, but equitable and empowering.
