I graduated from the University of Colorado (SKO BUFFS!) with a BA in Sociology. I spent a year working for Vail Corporation in customer service and sales where I learned valuable CX lessons faced by customers of large corporations.  

I moved to the DC Metro area in 2012, where I mastered complex Government projects and developed a reputation for innovative problem-solving. I streamlined a redundant government process, increasing efficiency within my contract.

After relocating to San Antonio in 2015, I launched my recruiting career within a government contracting startup, taking on a variety of responsibilities.  There, I excelled in conducting user interviews, gathering stakeholder requirements, and effectively managing expectations.

In 2022, my experience recruiting UX designers sparked my interest in the field, leading me to enroll in General Assembly's UX/UI bootcamp for foundational knowledge.  I found a natural aptitude for the UX process, I concentrated on developing my weaker design areas.
