Time Anchor
Built an adaptive SwiftUI planning prototype with anchors, check-ins, reminder routing, support modes, correction capture, and SwiftData persistence for variable-capacity days.
Resume
UX research and product design shaped by cognitive systems.
MS in Applied Cognition and Neuroscience, specialization in Cognition (2026). Focused on UX research, product design, adaptive support, and high-cognitive-load experiences. Based in the Dallas-Fort Worth area and open to UX research and product design opportunities.
Profile
UX researcher and product designer focused on complex, decision-heavy experiences where users are overloaded, uncertain, or trying to act on fragmented information. My work connects cognitive systems, product structure, interaction design, and evaluative research.
