Hi! I'm Emma, a UX researcher with a background in cognitive science and data science. I thrive at the intersection of research and design, where understanding human behavior can directly shape smarter, more meaningful user experiences.

I've always been hooked by the iterative process of UX design — how even small insights can drive meaningful change. It’s this constant evolution that keeps me curious and motivated to uncover the “why” behind people’s actions, behaviors, and decisions.

Outside of my project work, I love gaming and following industry news. It’s a fun way to relax and stay connected to evolving player experiences.

Let's connect!
