Hey!

I’m Laura.

Me in the world:

I’m a Design Researcher/UXR.

I’m the owner and founder of The Fika Table bakery and market in Austin, TX. Our homebase is inside Malone Coffee in Wells Branch. We serve multiple other local coffee shops and grocery stores daily. Here’s where you can find our bake shop & all our partners. Follow us on Instagram or subscribe to our monthly email.

I write about making the leap from tech-UX-corporate life to “something else.” I come from a dance background and have worked in print and digital advertising, UX design and research, museums, tutoring/teaching, food/beverage, and small business creation and ownership. Trust me, your path is valid and I support you! You can subscribe to my Substack here.

Me and you:

Open to UXR projects and teaching, collaboration and events in food and beverage, cultural exchange and chats about fika and related concepts, and your questions/discussion about making the leap from that corporate life to whatever is next.
