The UX Linguist
Design—for the user, through the user.
I believe that the core of user experience lies in the intersection of language and culture. I am endlessly fascinated and inspired by the ways language reveals user values. I draw from linguistics and ethnography in my research to elicit findings that cultivate empathy and drive design with purpose.
