About Me
Hello! I am a recent New York University graduate with a B.A. in Sociology and minors in Digital Art & Design and Creative Writing. My academic background has allowed me to explore the intersection of human behavior, design, storytelling, and technology—an area that continues to shape my professional interests.
My research and creative work center on understanding how people create meaning through products, experiences, and narratives. During my final year of undergraduate study, I focused on conducting a year-long honors research thesis, designing and conducting a qualitative research study examining how designers construct emotional narratives throughout the design process. This involved developing a research plan, recruiting and interviewing design professionals, conducting thematic analysis, and presenting my findings through both a written thesis and a conference presentation.
Through these experiences, I have developed strong skills in research, qualitative analysis, communication, and translating complex findings into presentable, actionable solutions and insights. I am particularly interested in design research, user experience, innovation, and human-centered problem solving. I enjoy uncovering the motivations, emotions, and behaviors that shape how people interact with products and systems, and I am excited to contribute these skills in collaborative, impact-driven environments.
