Hi, I’m Macie!
Human-Centered Strategist, Researcher, & Designer
Nelson Treehouse Prototype Build, 2023
About me:
M.S.-trained researcher and strategist with a foundation in anthropology and human-centered design. I've worked across construction, green energy, logistics, CPG, nonprofits, and outdoor gear. I know how to get oriented fast, ask the right questions, and deliver work that holds up, whether it lands in a framework, slide deck, product, or campaign.
Being a generalist means that I work end-to-end. My research informs strategy, my strategy shapes design, and my design holds my research accountable. I move between disciplines and that’s how I catch what specialists miss.
