About

The true delight is in the finding out rather than the knowing
— Issac Asimov
 
 

Hello, my name is Celeste.
I am endlessly curious about what ignites passion in the journey of being human.

I seek to effect positive change in the relationship between people, technology, and products by emphasizing insight and empathy with deep user research.

 

I am currently based in Denver, CO. I earned my BA in Cultural Anthropology at Texas State University. My background in anthropology and ethnography continues to impact my holistic approach to cultural understanding and research.

In the digital world we live in, it’s important to keep humans as the focal point for our designs. Technology impacts our daily life and keeps us connected globally. I do love a good dystopian sci-fi story, but I’m optimistic about progress in the human condition. My goal is to have a hand in innovation that drives humanity into a future that enriches our lives. This includes a passion for AI products that assist humans while remaining responsible to human judgment and needs.

I am creator in many facets of my life including drawing, painting, and plant design. Those that know me well, know I have a tendency to doodle constantly and they’ve probably let me cut their hair. I walk around aimlessly when I’m on the phone in a deep conversation and if the tree is right, I triple dog dare myself to climb it.
