Hi, I’m Arpy.
I’m an LA-based Human Factors researcher interested in turning messy user behavior into evidence teams can use to make better product decisions.

MY APPROACH
Humans are curious and notoriously unpredictable.
I approach research by questioning assumptions, looking for the unexpected, and understanding the context behind what people do, not just what they say. My background in Human Factors in Information Design helps me look beyond individual interactions to uncover the broader patterns shaping an experience.
I use those insights to help teams make practical decisions that account for both the users and the organization.
