I have a background in visual art and while unconventional, this training taught me observation and critical thinking skills. I’ve applied these skills to UX Design work and especially my research. I honed my analytical skills getting a Masters degree in Urban Planning at Columbia GSAPP and applied that rigor to my work at Codecademy and Maribel Health.

I’m now deepening my understanding of humans at the London School of Economics in their world renowned Social and Cultural Psychology program.
