Alessandra

I am a born and raised New Yorker, but had the opportunity to live abroad at a young age. Engaging with other cultures was always emphasized growing up. I attended international schools and was always challenged to think in new ways.

This openness allows me to better empathize with people from different backgrounds. I've been a lifelong researcher in the healthcare space, grounded in data to help improve lives. Despite health-tech advances, reliance remains on outdated and disconnected structures. I discovered UX out of a passion to improve workflows and systems to yield better outcomes.   

I am also an avid rock climber. Climbing involves mental grit, learning new approaches and beta testing to improve. These skills translate to my work. I am energized by solving problems, on and off the wall.
