Your favorite part of working at Bold Insight

I love that we’re helping people – from clients to users, we’re truly designing a better overall experience.

In your spare time (or if you had spare time), you would absolutely do this:

Invent a board game! I am weirdly passionate about them and believe that I could make a great one.

How long have you been in the UX field?

7 years

You cannot start the day without doing this...

Listening to NPR!

Your favorite city in the world is...and why?

Bogota, Colombia. It is a beautiful city and when the World Cup comes around, I am an avid Colombia supporter…. sorry, America.

Your ultimate celebrity dinner party guest list would include:

Taylor Swift. Barack Obama. Oliver Sacks – Neurologist/Author, RIP (If you haven’t read “The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat,” then you need to!). Albus Dumbledore – Greatest Wizard of All Time. Also, RIP.

Do you have a long-term personal or professional goal you'd like to share?

I speak some Spanish, but I would like to study other languages, including Mandarin. At some point, I plan to live outside the US for at least a year. Finally, I want to learn to play the ukulele, because who doesn’t like a ukulele?
