When you’re tired of product decisions built on hunches
Research gets mentioned a lot—right after a launch goes sideways or a bet doesn’t land. Suddenly everyone wants to “get closer to the user.” But without structure, that turns into scattered surveys, PM-led interviews, and insights that die in Slack threads.
That’s where I come in. Not with a slide deck. Not with theory. With actual forward motion.
I lead the research your team doesn’t have time to run.
You’ve got a packed roadmap, questions piling up, and no one on the team who can fully own the research. That’s where I come in.
I step in as your embedded researcher, writing screeners, leading sessions, synthesizing insights, and making sure the right people get the insights fast.
Project-based: Big questions, clear answers
For when the stakes are high and you can’t afford a wrong turn.
Talking to buyers before you go upmarket
Understanding why retention is flat, even with good usage
Testing demand for a brand-new product direction
Mapping segments and priorities before a big roadmap planning cycle
These projects usually run for 8-12 weeks on a flat fee, aligned to your sprint and planning cycles. You get a focused research partner who actually moves at your pace.
Monthly retainer: Research that keeps pace with your team
For product orgs that want usability insight baked into their workflow. You get:
Planning and running a moderated usability tests per month
Fast turnarounds, no rescoping every time
Slack check-ins, async reviews, and findings delivered in a way your team will actually use
Optional surveys or concept tests mixed in, based on priorities
Think of it like a carousel of lightweight research, one that doesn’t stall between launches or disappear.
