EMG wristband & AR glasses @Meta Reality Labs

Leading UX research projects for emerging tech hardware,
including AR, EMG and other wearable devices

You may have heard about Meta’s Orion AR glasses and input wristband that uses revolutionary electromyography (EMG) technology.
That’s what I’ve been working on - design research for the EMG wristband and similar products in Meta’s AR device ecosystem (many not yet announced)!

Key responsibilities:

• Multi-year UX research program execution & management: Developed and scaled a unique extended wear rolling research program for neural wrist wearables that tests proof-of-concept prototypes to pre-launch devices.

• Providing user-centered and data-driven recommendations: Synthesize findings from qualitative and quantitative research into clear, actionable insights for hardware design, out-of-box experiences and longitudinal product behavior and share recommendations with cross-functional stakeholders incl. engineering, ID and UX teams.

• Collaborate across multiple product teams: Work with several teams across Reality Labs to understand their product goals, identify their research needs and design appropriate studies that deliver impactful findings.

• Scope & execute next-gen AR product research: Leading generative and foundational research projects to identify user needs and design opportunities for future AR devices and neural wrist wearables.

• Manage external contractors: Oversee planning and execution of multi-location vendor-led research studies.

I’d love to show you more but as you can imagine these devices are pretty top secret :)
