Human-centered product designer with a background in psychology and HCI, using research to make emerging technologies more intuitive.

Hi, I am Stacy.

I am a product designer and a student pursuing a master's degree in information sciences with a background in psychology. I am interested in how people think and in exploring the relationship between people and technology.

I work with emerging technologies, solving real problems people face and using data to drive solutions.

My design philosophy is tied deeply to psychology. I focus on asking the right questions, understanding the problem context, and balancing user needs, business objectives, and real-life constraints.

Outside of design, I like experimenting with new tools, making matcha desserts, and reading.
