Portfolio

You can download my combined portfolio/CV, which highlights my work as a design researcher, design educator, and product designer. You can also download my longer academic CV or two-page resume to get a better sense of my work.

Design Researcher

I have over eight years of experience leading mixed methods research studies. I combine qualitative and quantitative research practices, including ethnographic observations, interviews and focus groups, surveys, live prototyping sessions, eye tracking studies, A/B testing, market research, segmentation studies, and human factors analysis.

Design Educator

I integrate a learn by doing philosophy into all of the lectures and workshops I teach. I have developed curricula and taught lectures, courses, workshops, and trainings on topics such as prototyping, creativity, design research, user experience, engineering design, design thinking / human-centered design, and technical communication to groups ranging from 10 to 500+ people. 

Product Designer

With degrees in product design engineering and mechanical engineering, I have vast experiences designing innovative products over the last ten years. My prior projects have ranged from educational toys to a laparoscopic surgical device to aerospace equipment to rural telemedicine health care systems.
