Usability
"While I earned my degree at an engineering university, I am not a strong STEM person. When I was a technical communicator, I used my experience as a non-STEM person to make technical documentation more user-friendly for others like me. This is how usability became one of my specialties."
Corporate Branding
"Graphic design initially started as just a hobby of mine. However, because of my graphic design experience, I was able to recognize a frequent gap between a company’s marketing department and their technical communications department. I used my graphic design experience to help bridge this gap, which led to corporate branding becoming my other career specialty. This grew into a passion for understanding a company's brand identity."
Photography
"As a photographer, I photograph everything. I use photography as both a hobby and an outlet to absorb, process, and understand the world around me. Some of my earliest memories include viewing my surroundings through a disposable film camera; however, after experiencing a double traumatic brain injury and skull fracture in 2016, photography became a lifejacket for me to remember the things my mind could not when I was struggling with memory loss during my recovery.
