About me

A Customer Experience Strategist transforming digital journeys and driving business growth.

Haley smiling

Hi, I’m Haley. Over the past 8+ years, I’ve worked at the intersection of UX, customer behavior, and front-end development—helping businesses improve their digital experiences in ways that actually move the needle.

I’ve worn a lot of hats: UX researcher, optimization analyst, designer, developer—and honestly, they’ve all had one thing in common: putting the customer first. Whether I’m digging into qualitative feedback, mapping out user journeys, or testing new ways to reduce friction, my focus is always on creating experiences that are easy, engaging, and aligned with what people actually need.

I’ve helped eCommerce brands increase sales, supported government teams in modernizing clunky systems, and partnered with small local organizations to build sites that truly reflect who they are. No matter the size or scope, I care deeply about making things better—for the user and the business.

These days, I’m leaning more into the customer experience strategy side of things—tying together research, design, and data to guide smarter decisions and stronger customer relationships. If you’re looking to improve the way people experience your brand or product, I’d love to help.
