About

Hello! I am Natalie, and I am a student at DePaul University in Chicago, IL, studying User Experience Design (BS) and French (BA), graduating class of 2025.  I love creating memorable experiences for people, which comes through in both my professional and personal life.  My goal, anytime I create an experience, is to make it as smooth and enjoyable as possible, because if an experience is enjoyable, people will come back.  Thus, many of my projects have focused on facilitating connections between people.  My goal is to be able to incorporate diverse perspectives into broader UX, making marginalized groups feel comfortable accessing and interacting with platforms online.  In school, I have been honored with Dean’s List every term.

In my personal life, I enjoy travelling, reading, and music.  In fact, I have played 5 different instruments in my life!  I am part of the Screamin’ Demons Pep Band, which plays at DePaul teams’ basketball games throughout the winter and early spring.  I don’t have a favorite book (it is too hard to pick!), but my favorite genre is currently high fantasy.  I’m always looking for recommendations!
