      <image:title>Home - What I can do</image:title>
      <image:caption>- Lead strategic, mixed-method research end-to-end: From foundational discovery to longitudinal field studies to evaluative usability and quantitative measurement (attitudinal surveys, MaxDiff, conjoin, behavioral analytics). - Scale research practice with AI tooling without sacrificing rigor: Architecting human-in-the-loop workflows across Claude, Copilot, Figma Make for synthesis, analysis, and prototyping. - Enable PMs, designers, and engineers to do better research themselves: Through study-design coaching, voice-of-the-customer programming, office hours, and peer review. - Champion responsible AI in practice: Contributing to organizational handbooks, defining ethical checkpoints, and translating responsible-AI principles into day-to-day research operations.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Home - Who I am</image:title>
      <image:caption>Outside of work, I am an aspiring novelist, certified yoga teacher, and trail runner. The through-line of my interests is the ability to hold patient attention, while remaining flexible and adaptable to whatever comes my way. I’m a lifelong learner with a 1,842-day Duolingo streak (and counting) and an enduring soft spot for any tool that helps people achieve their goals. I live in San Diego, CA with my husband and two girls and I am happiest when I am sitting outside with a book and a piping hot cut of coffee.</image:caption>
