UX Research Resume

Senior quantitative UX researcher for high-stakes product decisions.

I help product, design, and data teams turn ambiguous user problems into clear evidence: survey measurement, behavioral analytics, experimentation, segmentation, AI evaluation, and decision-ready mixed-method research.

Role Fit

Where I fit best

I am strongest in roles where research needs to be rigorous enough for statistical scrutiny and practical enough to shape product decisions.

Senior Quantitative UX Researcher

Survey design, product analytics, behavioral measurement, experimentation, and product decision support.

AI / Trust / Measurement Researcher

Evaluation of trust, distrust, reliance, interpretability, human control, and workflow fit in AI-assisted systems.

Mixed Methods UX Researcher

Combining interviews, behavioral data, surveys, prototypes, and workflow evidence into decision-ready synthesis.

Research Scientist-adjacent UXR

HCI background, statistical programming, simulation, measurement design, and applied product research translation.

Evidence of Impact

What I help teams do

Make ambiguous product questions measurable Translate broad questions about adoption, friction, trust, or value into measurable constructs, decision criteria, and practical research plans.
Connect behavior to user understanding Use telemetry, funnels, clickstreams, workflows, interviews, and surveys together so teams understand both what users do and why it matters.
Quantify tradeoffs for product decisions Apply ranking, MaxDiff, conjoint-style thinking, segmentation, and simulation to clarify priorities instead of relying on intuition alone.
Evaluate AI systems responsibly Measure trust, distrust, reliance, control, usefulness, and workflow fit so AI products can be evaluated as human-facing systems, not just models.

Target Roles

Roles where I am easiest to hire well

I am looking for teams that need rigorous research judgment, statistical programming, and product fluency in the same person.

Best match

  • Senior / Staff UX Researcher, Quantitative
  • AI product research and trust measurement
  • Mixed-methods research with strong analytics expectations

Team context

  • Product teams with real behavioral data and messy decisions
  • Research teams that need stronger measurement systems
  • AI or platform teams evaluating human-facing system behavior

Not the best use of me

  • Pure interview-only generalist roles with no quant surface area
  • Roles with no path from evidence into product decisions
  • Environments that treat research as presentation theater

Case Studies

Business-readable case studies

These are intentionally compact and confidentiality-safe. The goal is to show how I frame product questions, choose methods, and translate research into decisions.

Quantifying distrust in an AI-assisted reasoning system

Problem
The team needed a defensible way to evaluate distrust, control, and acceptance, not just whether users found the system useful.
Method
Trust-scale design, Likert measurement, ordinal modeling, user-type comparisons, and public-safe synthesis.
What I did
Turned distrust from a vague concern into measurable constructs that could guide evaluation and product decisions.
Decision value
Helped teams reason about where AI assistance increased confidence, where it triggered suspicion, and what to measure next.

Building a persona architecture tied to product decisions

Problem
Static personas were not specific enough to guide roadmap, onboarding, messaging, or measurement decisions.
Method
Mixed-method synthesis across interviews, preference evidence, workflow observations, and behavioral segmentation logic.
What I did
Designed a layered segmentation system connecting behavioral roles, motivations, constraints, and product implications.
Decision value
Moved the work from persona storytelling into an operating model for prioritization and post-launch analysis.

Diagnosing a multi-step product journey with high drop-off

Problem
A product flow was losing users early, but the team lacked a shared explanation for the behavioral and experiential causes.
Method
Journey framing, behavioral baseline design, survey measurement, scorecards, and product analytics interpretation.
What I did
Connected observed drop-off patterns to research questions about trust, clarity, friction, and decision confidence.
Decision value
Created a reusable baseline for prioritization, benchmarking, and evaluating whether future changes improved the experience.

Experience

Selected applied research leadership

Senior quantitative UX research and statistical consulting

  • Designed research programs connecting product questions to measurable user behavior, trust, friction, and decision quality.
  • Built survey and analysis workflows using R, Python, SQL, preference modeling, segmentation, and decision-oriented reporting.
  • Produced confidentiality-safe evidence packs, research proposals, simulation notebooks, and stakeholder-ready summaries.

Google X / Wing, Microsoft Research, and AI evaluation work

  • Led and supported research around autonomous delivery, AI-assisted reasoning, trust-sensitive workflows, and model-driven decision support.
  • Developed measurement approaches for trust, distrust, reliance, interpretability, system acceptance, and human control.
  • Translated complex technical behavior into research questions product, design, and engineering teams could act on.

Docker, Cloudera, Workday, RightScale/Flexera, and startup-stage work

  • Conducted mixed-method and quantitative research for complex workflows, developer tools, cloud platforms, enterprise software, and adoption problems.
  • Built segmentation systems, onboarding research, taxonomy validation, heuristic evaluations, benchmark studies, and journey diagnostics.
  • Helped teams choose practical next steps when evidence was incomplete, noisy, or distributed across multiple data sources.

Public Boundaries

Confidential work, public-safe signal

Some of my strongest AI and product research is confidential client or employer work. On this site, I describe methods, problem classes, and public-safe outcomes without sharing proprietary artifacts or materials without permission.
