A little about me…
Hi, I'm Anna. I'm a Product Designer hailing from Southern California and currently based in Seattle, Washington.
As a Product Designer with experience working in a UX Research team, I've run usability studies, championed research tools across my entire design org, and used data to resolve debates to move teams forward.
Growing up, I'd take notice of ergonomics and designs that improved the small things in life. Adding pencil grips made writing less painful. The yellow tactile pavements across Tokyo let people with vision impairments navigate the city. That curiosity about making things work better for everyone followed me in life.
When I discovered UX Design, I realized there was an entire field built around that same question, further applied to the technology people use every day. I studied Human-Computer Interaction at UC Irvine to pursue a career built on this curiosity.
