i’m kyra (k👁️-ruh)

I’m a ux designer based in Durham, NC. Currently, building new financial portfolio construction tools at Fidelity Investments.

versatile and intentional

I bring together my experience in public health research, owning and running a business, and head coaching youth sports. As a user experience designer, I’m energized by data and research, building processes and systems, and driving teamwork. I create solutions that are pragmatic, intentional, and easy to understand.

I’m a big believer in community and collaboration. I volunteer with the TriUXPA to bring fun and informative events to the local UX community. At Designlab, I’ve worked as a UI teaching assistant, organized educational and social events, facilitated design critiques, and served as a leader within the community.

human powered adventurer

When not working, you can usually find me outside.

I've backpacked the 211 miles of the John Muir Trail (Nüümü Poyo) from Mount Whitney to Yosemite National Park.

I'm a 6x competitor in the USA Ultimate National Championships. I give back to the ultimate community as a tournament organizer and girls high school coach.
