The Woman, The Myth, The Legend

Born in Ireland, raised across South Africa, England, and Nigeria, and educated everywhere from Kenya, to the Netherlands, to the U.S., I proudly wear the badge of “global citizen.” Each place has left its mark, shaping my worldview and adding a unique spin to my approach.

 

With a passion for understanding people, I studied Psychology and Biology at Clark University, where I stumbled upon the world of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI)—a perfect fusion of design, psychology, and tech magic that turns ideas into experiences.

 

My curiosity led me to research microaggressions, hegemonic masculinity, alternative policing, and even religion’s role in the pandemic, building skills in research, analysis, and teamwork along the way. Now, at the University of Michigan, I’m diving deeper into HCI, excited to design tech that not only elevates experiences but also drives positive change.

Clark University

BA Psychology, Biology (minor)

I completed my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology with a minor in Biology at Clark University, where I developed a strong foundation in understanding human behavior and the science of life. This interdisciplinary background has enriched my approach to user experience design, equipping me with insights into cognitive processes and biological factors that inform human interactions with technology.
