About Autumn
I’m a Senior UX Designer focused on simplifying complex systems and getting into AI wherever I can (I’m obsessed)—whether that’s enterprise platforms, AI-integrated workflows, or products that have just gotten messy over time. I tend to land in the gray space between research, systems thinking, and hands-on design—figuring out what’s not working, and building something that does.
My background includes UX strategy, visual design, and turning vague problems into well-defined solutions. I’ve led product redesigns, built design systems, and helped shape long-term UX direction by staying close to both the user and the people building it out. I thrive being thrown in the fire even though I’d like to convince myself I prefer a more steady pace - I like to juggle a few things at a time.
Outside of work, I enjoy photography, making new recipes, hiking with my dog and the ongoing project of designing the interior of my house. I’m in two book clubs one for fun and one that is UX focused. I like starting projects like the Course Club I began with the Interaction Design Foundation, accountability groups with friends and playing around with business ideas.
