Expero Blog

I've had the opportunity to write several blog posts for Expero from the perspective of the Sr. User Researcher and in defense of the voice of the user. Read the archive here, or head over to my UX Blog for more.

Velma

Velma Magazine was the first and only publication for Austin's women in technology. As editor-in-chief of the magazine, I managed process, evaluated submissions for substance, and copy edited articles for grammar and spelling.

The first issue launched just in time for Austin Startup Week 2014, and the 5 subsequent issues launched on the first of each month. The team is on hiatus for now, but we expect to come back soon with more techspertise.

UXclamations

Back in 2014, Digital Project Manager extraordinaire Christine Holcombe and I shared our UX musings and missions in a short podcast. We also offered some insight into what TV shows you should have been watching, so watch out!

Design For Use Blog

Each month at Design For Use, I published a blog that explores a UX research trial or trend. Past topics include quantitative versus qualitative methodologies, remote moderated testing techniques, and, most important: tech trends on TV!
