I didn't plan to become a UX designer. I just couldn't stop asking questions.

For 6 years I worked as a software developer at Capgemini, Infosys, and Accenture — building features, shipping code, and sitting in enough meetings to notice that we were often solving the wrong problems. The users were an afterthought. That bothered me and I followed that feeling. I moved into UX at Accenture, and something shifted. Turns out I care deeply about the people on the other side of the screen, how they think, where they struggle, what would actually make their day easier. When I find something that matters to me, I go all in, so I went back to school and completed a Master of Information in UX Design at the University of Toronto.

These days I bring everything to the table, the research, the design, and the dev background that means I actually understand what I'm handing off to engineers.
