CONSUMER RESEARCH & CONFIDENTIALITY

40-plus studies.
A perspective companies can use.

Since 2019, I have participated in more than 40 studies through Interpret’s Good Gamer Group. In 2021, I tested current-generation console gaming hardware for accessibility features.

I have signed numerous NDAs through this research. I can discuss my general experience and the perspective I bring, while keeping confidential companies, products, prototypes, and study details private.
