About Me
My educational background includes a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Rochester. I then received a Certificate of Graphic Design from Shillington, a UX Design Certificate from CareerFoundry, and am now pursuing my Masters degree in Human Factors in Information Design at Bentley University. I think it’s safe to say that I like school :)
I currently serve as Vice President on the board of a student run organization called the UXGA (User Experience Graduate Association) and love planning events to create a sense of community among my fellow students.
According to Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, I am an ENFP (Extrovert, Intuitive, Feeler, and Perceiver). Qualities of ENFP’s that I most identify with include: curious, enthusiastic, perceptive, harmonious, empathetic, & versatile
Fun fact: only about 7% of Americans are believed to be ENFP’s!
My top 5 CliftonStrengths are Strategic, Arranger, Empathy, Positivity, & Woo. These span all four domains of Executing, Influencing, Relationship Building, & Strategic Thinking — which is also quite rare.
Outside of work I love traveling, puzzles (jigsaw & Wordle), and yoga — sometimes I even teach!
