Welcome!

Hi, I’m Theresa – A UX Research Leader with 14 Years of Experience

 

Research found me in 2011and I’ve never looked back.

Back then, I was on a pre-med path, convinced I had my life planned down to a tee: Medical school, Emergency Medicine speciality, and boom #lifegoals. But life had other plans. While taking night classes to complete my science prerequisites, I picked up a role as a Research Coordinator to help pay for tuition. That role was meant to be temporary. Instead, it became transformational.

 

I discovered that research isn’t just about data, it's about impact. It’s how businesses uncover human needs, solve real-world problems, and shape experiences that matter. I quickly realized that the sense of purpose I thought I’d find in medicine, I had already found in Research.

 

Since then, I’ve spent the last 14+ years growing into a strategic UX Research leader guiding teams, elevating research practices, and influencing product direction at scale. From scrappy startup environments to global enterprise teams, I’ve led initiatives across B2B and B2C, mid-market to Fortune 500, building strong cross-functional partnerships along the way.

 

Today, I help companies create user-centered experiences that drive business results, and I’m just getting started.
