Hello! I'm an independent user experience designer/information architect based in Los Angeles. I have a passion for reusable, structured content and taxonomy, so you'll likely find me working on projects that focus on information architecture, content strategy, taxonomy development, and user research. This year I was the lead organizer for World Information Architecture Day Los Angeles in Feb 2017. I am excited to be being a part of WIAD and bringing the LA community together for a daylong of sensemaking. Specialties: information architecture, interaction design, content strategy, metadata, taxonomy, controlled vocabularies, agile processes, design strategy, user research
