Intro
As a social scientist, I'm on a thrilling mission to decode the fascinating complexities of human experience, beliefs, and behaviors. I specialize in elevating the interaction design of both physical and digital spaces, sprinkled with a dash of process and service optimization.
But here's the real kicker – I'm not your run-of-the-mill researcher. I come armed with the superpowers of mixed methods research and data analysis, making me your go-to person for whipping up reliable and innovative solutions to those head-scratching business challenges. My secret ingredient? Ethnography! It's all about actively engaging users, exploring insights through intersectional lens.
And here's the twist – my PhD journey transforms me into an expert innovator, capable of unearthing unprecedented discoveries. Quick learning and effective problem-solving are my specialties, allowing me to understand and make strategic decisions across a wide range of subjects.
Now, did I mention my passion for gender-inclusive design? Absolutely! I'm all about cultivating team diversity to find ways to think outside the box.
Ready for a flavor-packed collaboration? Let's connect and brainstorm how my zest for elevating experiences and driving innovation, can bring a burst of fresh energy to your team. I don't just bring skills; I bring a genuine dedication to cooking up inclusive, diverse, and sustainable digital solutions.
Let's make it happen! 🚀
