Excited to start my mentoring and coaching on the side again. If you want to learn more about how to do research, happy to jam :)

Last day at Spotify, what an amazing 6 year run with the best people! Grateful to have built and lead incredible research and data teams along the way :)

Just created my first group called "Researchers x Startups" which is a forum for researchers who enjoy helping startups learn and iterate. If this sounds like you, come join us :)

Hosted Good Research, a week long conference about all things UX Research!
