Hi, I'm Bonnie!  

A Design Researcher with a background in theater and journalism, where I learned the power of storytelling to shape understanding and drive action.

For the past 5 years, I've lead end-to-end research that turns human insight into product strategy helping teams see not just what users do, but why it matters. I'm most energized when complex human experiences become clear, actionable decisions that make products more useful, usable, and meaningful.
