About me
UC San Diego: B.S. Cognitive Science - Machine Learning, minor: Design
Bay Area, California
Hey, I'm Arielle!
I translate insights from people's experiences into products that simplify their lives. I'm especially drawn to the edges where AI, robotics, and human behavior meet, and how thoughtful design can make those systems feel less like technology and more like help.
Outside of work, 9/10 times you'll find me at a café hunting for matcha, watching Chiikawa shorts, or browsing cheap flights I may or may not take.
Experience
I design experiences that bridge human behavior and emerging technology— from AI-driven government tools to human-robot interfaces for people living with chronic illness.
My work spans:
AI (Agent-assisted, Conversational, Human-Robot Interaction)
Gov Tech & Public Sector
EdTech
Healthcare & Accessibility
Consumer & Community Platforms
All with a focus on translating ambiguous, complex systems into clear, human-centered interactions grounded in real user needs. I operate at the intersection of UX research, product strategy, and technical implementation, moving fluidly from discovery to prototyping to shipped product.
Across roles in product management, UX design, and research, I've led work from early user interviews to high-fidelity prototypes and live implementations, collaborating with engineers, researchers, and stakeholders to design with intention and build with care.
