Designing with Empathy DELIVERING WITH PURPOSE

Hi, I’m Val...

a product designer, problem-solver, and mountain-dweller.

I help teams design intuitive, human-centered digital experiences that simplify complex systems. I currently support a federal agency, improving the usability of enterprise applications that impact thousands of users, backed by a strong foundation in UX design and research.

I didn’t start my career in tech...and that’s one of my greatest strengths. My journey brings a unique perspective and a deeper understanding of the humans behind the screens.

Why I can make a difference

I bring a foundation in business and marketing, which helps me design with both users and stakeholders in mind by aligning user needs with business goals.

My fascination with cognitive science inspires me to design in ways that align with how humans think, reducing mental effort and creating intuitive experiences.

Thanks to my technical understanding, I collaborate confidently with developers to create designs that are feasible, responsive, and accessible from day one.
