Hi, I'm Liz Guerrero

About Liz mage

I enjoy diving deep into user problems and finding creative solutions for business and user needs. I am a methodical UX Researcher with five years of experience in user, product, and academic research. I am currently applying user-centered research to Omnissa (formerly VMware EUC business) products.

Throughout my work, I consistently steer towards answering the main research question, ensuring that my decisions align with this goal. I excel in extracting meaning from complex qualitative data, forging connections between seemingly disparate learnings, and deriving insights from numerical data. My ability to draw learnings from academic literature and swiftly integrate them into my research plan is a testament to my commitment to staying updated and leveraging existing knowledge. I find it both enjoyable and rewarding to demonstrate these approaches to new research partners.

On a personal note, I love spending time with my goofy dog, improving my Muay Thai skills, and enjoying a good theatre or standup show. If anything on this website sounds like a good fit, email me or message me on LinkedIn, and we can chat in greater detail. 

Thanks!
