Hello! I am Alex :)

Welcome to my page! I’m Alex, a passionate creative problem-solver who specializes in experience design, workshop/discussion/design facilitation, teaching & user research. I am also a Boston drag performer!

I believe that access to quality, affordable, and dignified health care is a fundamental human right. This however, is not a reality for many individuals in the United States. I am on a relentless pursuit to use the power of design to improve consumer experiences and to ensure marginalized patients can one day achieve equitable health outcomes.

“You cannot design for a population without them.”

Michael Curry - President of the Mass League of Community Health Center
