ABOUT ME

Hi! I'm Riley.

An educator turned designer based in Austin, TX.

MY STORY

From teaching to UX design

The beginning

Before transitioning into UX, I spent three years in international education as a teacher and university program manager.

That experience shaped how I approach design, with a strong respect for diverse ways of thinking.

Full-time UX

Today, I work as the first UX researcher at a community college, redesigning web experiences for current and prospective students.

I also run a small design studio where I partner with startups and corporations on early-stage product design.

After hours

Aside from designing, I’m proud to call myself bilingual in Spanish (and soon trilingual in French!), a writer, hiker, and soccer enthusiast!
