Hi, I’m Nia

  • I am currently studying for my MS in Human Computer Interaction at Indiana University!

    I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Interactive Design and a Minor in Information Technology (May 2024) from Kennesaw State University.

  • I value empathy, inclusiveness, and collaboration. I believe in continuing to educate yourself to make informed decisions and better understand the people (and technology) we interact with.

    • My organization and adaptability helps me thrive in ambiguous situations.

    • I love breaking complex issues into Fisher-Price solutions to better help others navigate and understand their needs.

    • I am unafraid to learn and ask questions to ensure the best results possible.
