Product Experience & Adoption

Shaping Experiences Through Data and Empathy

Helping organizations enhance product experience with research-driven insights, shaped by my expertise in SEO and UX.

SEO That Reveals Intent

My background in SEO gives me insight into how users discover products, the problems they are trying to solve, and the language they use.

Research to Understand User Needs

I uncover the motivations, behaviors, and friction points that shape how people interact with products and inform more intuitive digital experiences.

Experiences that Drive Adoption

I translate research and behavioral insights into product improvements that help users onboard faster, discover value sooner, and stay engaged.

About Me

Where My Passion Began

My journey into UX started with a curiosity about how people discover and interact with digital products. I studied Interaction Design and began my career in SEO, where I analyzed search behavior, optimized websites, and used data to improve visibility and engagement.

Working in SEO gave me a deep understanding of user intent, what people are actually trying to accomplish when they search. Over time, I realized I wanted to go deeper than traffic and rankings to understand the full user experience.

That curiosity led me into UX research, where I now focus on uncovering user insights and helping teams design better product experiences.

Today at Sage, my work sits at the intersection of UX research, product adoption, and behavioral insights.
