    I have a PhD in anthropology from the University of California, Berkeley, where I studied sociocultural and linguistic anthropology. My doctoral project focused on indigenous language politics in Quintana Roo, Mexico, and continues work I undertook for my BA honors thesis at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, where I graduated Summa Cum Laude. Building on my academic career of over ten years, I have extensive experience in academic writing and editing, and have always received excellent feedback on my style and clarity. Writing comes naturally to me, and I enjoy the challenge of perfecting the details of a paper, grant application, or other text. Writing my dissertation was a process which imbued me with a breadth of observational, analytical, and expressive skills. My four years of experience teaching and grading for anthropology classes at UC Berkeley involved working closely with students on their written work, amounting to an intensive training in effective and efficient proofreading and editing. Additionally, I worked in conjunction with a highly respected professor, helping to verify research, compile an index, and copy-edit an academic book which has since been published by the University of California Press. I have won various grants and awards based on the merits of my intellectual vision and accomplishments. I am a native English speaker and speak fluent Spanish, which I also read and write at an academic level. I have experience translating texts from Spanish to English, and editing texts written in English by non-native English speakers. I also have proficiency in Italian and French, and speak some Yucatec Maya and Turkish.

    As a UX Designer and developer, I translate business goals into products that meet customer needs and generate revenue. With over 12 years of UI/UX Design, I believe I will be a valuable asset to your team. It is my duty to think about and account for the whole user experience from end-to-end. A consistent and intuitive user interface creates a good user experience. I utilize design systems to achieve this goal. With a design system, I can ensure a consistent user experience across every web page or application screen. I have built and maintained several design systems in the past. They have been critical in creating great experiences for users and product teams alike. User research is also critical to creating a good user experience. I have extensive experience with user testing. I often convert my designs into clickable prototypes and test them with users. The feedback from testing with users then informs any improvements made in the product. Implementation of good, user-vetted design is also very critical to the overall user experience. For this purpose, I employ my unique skill set for a designer i.e. front-end development. With my knowledge of HTML, CSS and Javascript, I can move designs into production with ease, either building the products myself or handing them off to developers. Good design goes hand-in-hand with product strategy. I am able to collaborate with designers, developers and high-level stakeholders to come up with the best solutions for customers. My ability to work across teams and interests makes me especially suitable for this role.
