Hi, I'm Daniela

I'm a Usability/UX Researcher from Ontario, Canada. On multi-disciplinary teams, I can be your go-to for embedding users' needs in technological visions. With years of industry experience and a PhD in Computer Science, I'm well-versed in leveraging UX methods in agile environments.

I've uncovered impactful insights for companies in the tech, healthcare, and aviation sectors. I have a passion for inclusive design with specialties in accessibility, usable security, and privacy.

Thank you for spending some time here. Each case study highlights the full arc of research: the framing of key questions, the selection of appropriate methodologies, and the actionable insights that drove product decisions.
