Hi! I'm Hazel.

Currently, I'm a Senior Product Designer at NPR, where I lead research, design, and strategy for podcast initiatives. I have extensive experience with the entire lifecycle of product and user experience, from researching and shaping product requirements based on user pain points, building and testing mockups and prototypes, to shipping everything from full-scale products to specific features.

I hold a BS in Cognitive Science with Specialization in Human-Computer Interaction from the University of California San Diego, and I graduated with department honors and distinction for completing an honors thesis. I also have experience with conducting academic research and front-end development.

I'm based out of Seattle, WA, and in my spare time, you can see me taking photos and trying to recreate restaurant recipes at home. Please reach out if you want to chat about design, food, or anything in between!
