About Me

avataaars

→ Hey, I’m Alex! I like taking complex problems and creating scalable solutions. Always eager to learn and teach others.

→ Currently a product designer at SonderMind, a behavioral health company. In previous roles, I've designed data visualization tools, CRM-style tools, B2C tools, design systems, and more.

→ I worked in digital journalism in NYC for six years before transitioning to design. Thinking about how readers would experience my articles was my gateway drug into the world of UX. Now, my interviewing and storytelling skills are assets to my UX work.
