More about me
I have been researching and informing physical and digital consumer products since 2004. My primary focus has been Mobile and TV products and I have recently expanded to working on smart home and internet products.
Having conducted research all over the world, one of my biggest insights is that while understanding differences is important, users are often more similar than different.
I also love to travel for fun and though it’s hard to pick a favorite, one of my most memorable trips was on my own in Italy. More recently, I’ve been taking my family back to Michigan where I grew up. We spend a lot of time in Detroit, which has become one of our favorite cities to explore together.
