ABOUT ME
            I am a recent Wellesley College graduate based in the Greater NYC Metropolitan Area. I graduated with my B.A. in Media Arts & Sciences, which honed my expertise in social computing and information science, particularly their intersection with Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and media studies.

I'm passionate about using research and analytics to bridge the gap between clients and their audiences. I find it inspiring to explore how user/consumer-centered research can foster positive online interactions, cultivate thriving communities, and promote digital well-being.

My experience combines academic research with media production, allowing me to translate complex information into engaging, interactive experiences. I have a strong desire to leverage my knowledge of the social computing field to create impactful tools that effectively communicate valuable information to a wider audience. This aligns with my core belief that everyone deserves access to research-driven insights that can positively impact their daily lives.

           When I am not researching or creating, I am making monoprints, listening to podcasts, or watching Survivor.
