Hi! I'm Paige!
NNG Master UX Certified and recently named one of "36 active UX leaders to follow on LinkedIn" by User Interviews.com, I am an experienced Senior UX researcher with a background in anthropology and community-based participatory action research. I have training in design thinking and participatory/qualitative methodologies and am particularly passionate about the health and wellness industries.
I am currently building the UXR practice for the Prevention teams at RVO Health. My work focuses on the app Wellos and Real Appeal + Quit for Life programs. This website displays some of my UX work; recent work samples and UX case studies are available via portfolio interview.
A bit about my hobbies: I live on an island in the Pacific Northwest so I regularly enjoy cold water swimming in the Puget Sound. I also spend my time painting folk art of my travels, knitting sweaters and hats, hiking, practicing yoga, trail running, backpacking in the mountains and traveling!
I am also a part-time art teacher at the Pacific Northwest Art School in Coupeville where I teach night classes on sweater knitting 101 (see my latest class!) . My art was also recently displayed at the Island County Art Museum in the "Fabulous Fiber Throughout the Ages" exhibit.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY
Robert Newell, Senior User Experience Research at Indeed.com
"Paige is one of the most engaged, industrious, and innovative researchers I’ve ever been on a team with. She frequently takes the lead with creative study and process methods. She expertly facilitates stakeholder engagement and cross-org researcher collaboration. And she is adept at working on multiple fronts to expand her influence throughout the org both in working groups and as a mentor.
Paige is the first researcher I tend to turn to for feedback on a novel study, synthesis, or brainstorming method. She’s always happy to engage and is invested in improving it. Even better, she'll try it herself and share her learnings and suddenly we've moved from an interesting idea to a refined and effective method adopted by other teams.
I’m so glad Paige is my colleague. She’s not only made a huge impact on how the company understands the needs of its users, but she's raised the bar for the quality of our work as a research team."
