Hi, I’m Stephanie — a research-driven product and UX designer and former clinician.

Before design, I worked in clinical environments where decisions carried real consequences. That experience shapes how I think about systems today. I’ve seen firsthand how tools can either support critical thinking or quietly get in the way.

I’m naturally curious and pragmatic. When a problem feels messy, I start by questioning how it’s framed. I run conversations, surface patterns, and structure ambiguity into something teams can act on. For me, good design begins with clarity — not screens.

I’m energized by complex, high-stakes challenges and collaborative teams willing to rethink assumptions. I care about building tools that reduce cognitive burden, restore autonomy, and make everyday work more sustainable.

If that resonates, I’d love to connect.
