I believe every user has a name,
every person has a struggle, and
every struggle has a path to a solution.
Hola// Howdy// Hi
I’m a UX writer with a strong sense of design thinking and an interest in social good.
I love diving into this new yet strangely familiar world of UX. I focus on writing because it’s the best way for me to draw attention to facts, expose falsehoods, and tell truths. Words either make or break an experience, with each note having a significant weight.
My obsession with the creative process began with a poem, flourished in a song, and came to full fruition as a UX writer. My background laid the foundation for understanding that there’s a story behind everything we come across and that those stories affect how we navigate our experiences.
After completing my BA in English, with an emphasis in creative writing, I spent more than eight years in business management, which taught me how to strategize and prioritize specific goals in a complex workplace. I’ve learned that the design mindset makes its way into every industry. I love working in environments that see people as more than just “users.”
Would you like to see my work?
