Who am I?

Hi, I'm Julie (she/her), a Brooklyn-based human. Currently, I'm on a happiness journey, inspired by the Science of Well-Being, and learning about the human brain. My goal is to joyfully shape the human experience through design.  

I’m a product thinking UX designer excited about how technology can transform traditional industries and designing ethical and inclusive products that leverage AI’s potential.  My background in software engineering and interdisciplinary studies tie together my technical knowledge with creative problem-solving.

A lifelong learner, I’m always curious about something.  One recent thing I’ve learned about is choice architecture, the design of different ways in which choices can be presented to decision makers, and the impact of that presentation on decision-making.  
As designers, how can we responsibly present choices to people?‍

I’m passionate about social issues such as climate change, education, healthcare, and more.

In my free time you'll find me playing ultimate frisbee, climbing fake rocks, skiing, listening to podcasts, reading, drawing, at a comedy show, and seeking out new places and activities. (Can you tell I have many hobbies?)
‍
Say hello!  I’d love to chat about collaborating, design, something new you’ve learned, or any one of my many hobbies (and potential future hobbies :D).
