Meet our Design Researcher: Paris

‍What brings you to FF, Paris?

My past experience in executive assistance has prepared me in providing a great user experience in team development for the agencies I have had the pleasure to work with. My B.S. in Psychology reflects my passion and fascination with human behavior and analytical and cognitive processes. I am so excited to continue my UX research career with Further Faster. I was on the hunt for a place to work that values and emphasizes keen human behavior insights, an environment that promotes growth, and a partnership mindset. I have no doubts that Further Faster will provide me with the tools that I need to continue on my career path.

What's your superpower as a designer?

I love to learn. I’m big on self-teaching and discovery. I love learning about new tools and processes.

Why do you like focusing on research?

Research is an innate skill for me. I love to learn more about things I don’t already know about while also discovering key insights that will help us create innovative products.

What's one thing people wouldn't know about you from your LinkedIn profile?

I am a podcast junkie and I especially love social sciences podcasts like Invisibilia, This American Life, and pretty much anything NPR.

When you were a kid, what was your dream job?

I wanted to be a scientist. I love science and I thought I would be an archaeologist.

What's one thing you'd like to accomplish professionally before you retire?

Lead a team of researchers at any cool company that promotes accessibility, diversity, equity, and inclusion.
