About

Meet Kenna.

Hi there! My name is Kenna and I a User Experience Strategist located in Chicago, IL. Since I was young, I have been obsessed with people: the way we think, connect, and find joy in everyday things. With my background in both creative and technical fields, I have a passion for combining these interests to craft accessible experiences for the thing I love: people.

For the past 3 years, I have worked with EVERSANA Intouch researching and creating user-centered products. I also have freelanced designing and developing websites since high school. In addition to my experience in UX and development, I also have a passion for photography and videography.

I am always down to collaborate and love taking on new challenges. Feel free to connect with me on LinkedIn or shoot me an email at [email protected]!
