Senior User Experience Researcher with 10+ years of experience helping AI and SaaS teams reduce risk, align stakeholders, and make confident product decisions.
How I Got Here
My background in information science and human-centered research shaped how I think about systems, decision-making, and trust. Over the past decade, I’ve applied that foundation across healthcare, civic tech, Web3, and AI-powered SaaS, working with teams navigating high ambiguity and real-world constraints.
What Colleagues Say About Working With Me
“Tyreek's experience in the UXR field, his human-centered approach, and his willingness to share his time and expertise make him a fabulous mentor and I feel lucky to know him!
Tyreek's warmth, encouragement of authenticity, ongoing mentorship, and connections in UXR are a HUGE reason I have a job today ☺️ I met Tyreek through ADPList when I was trying to land a UX Researcher role. Tyreek not only gave me extremely helpful tangible advice I could apply to the job search as well as actionable feedback on my resume, LinkedIn profile, and portfolio, he gave me "human" advice. He told me to focus on my uniqueness about what makes me me and what stories I can share, because no other applicant can replicate that. I really needed to hear that after being inundated with run-of-the-mill robotic job search advice. He also recommended applying for a job at a company he knew was friendly to recent PhD grads and stayed in contact with me throughout the interview process to give me advice on nailing a technical interview. I just found out last week I got the job! Tyreek's experience in the UXR field, his human-centered approach, and his willingness to share his time and expertise make him a fabulous mentor and I feel lucky to know him!”
