UX of Motherhood

I’ve been quiet for a while, learning how to exist inside a new version of life.

Over the past year or so, I’ve been pregnant, had a baby, and experienced the most amazing, overwhelming, all-encompassing chapter of my life. Becoming a mother has cracked me open in ways I’m still trying to understand.

My daughter just turned one, and I finally feel like I’m coming up for air! I’ve been taking inventory, and slowly reconnecting with the parts of myself that make me me.

As I re-enter this creative space, I’ve started a newsletter called The UX of Motherhood.

My little fam

It’s a place where I’m thinking out loud about what it means to design, work in tech, parent, and make sense of life with a baby… all at once. It's where my design brain meets my mom brain, where tiny systems make life smoother, and where the moments that can't be captured end up mattering the most.

I’ve been working on a “formal” description of the newsletter that goes something like this: UX of Motherhood is a newsletter about the invisible work of care, the visible artifacts of design, and the fuzzy interface where parenting happens. Also look forward to: nap-resistant users, nonlinear workflows, and AI tools that might buy you five minutes.

I’ll still be posting here now and then, but most of my energy will be focused on the newsletter. I’d love for you to check it out — subscribe, share, or just follow along!
