Profile

​

After graduating college, I began working in Residential Psychology at Cincinnati Children's. There, I learned valuable skills that allowed me to lead a team of people toward our common goal of helping our clients be their healthiest selves. I was given the unique privilege of training employees in TCI (Therapeutic Crisis Intervention) during my time there, helping to foster an environment of safety and support. After two years there, I shifted my focus to something I felt I could be even more successful at. While working as a tutor, I completed online certifications in UI/UX Design and Research through Google's professional certificate program. I also attained a Google 4 Analytics Certification to deepen my understanding of performance indicators for apps and websites. I hope to apply that knowledge and my past experience to a new opportunity in the UX field. I continue to build upon my portfolio to show what I can contribute to potential employers.
