Hi, I'm Claire Benjamin, design researcher and strategist based in Boulder, CO.
I translate abstract problems into tangible design insights by investigating and designing alongside people. I discover the root elements of complex challenges and enable the creation of meaningful, imaginative products and systems that are truly relevant for people.
​
My depth of expertise includes leading human-centered improvements to products, processes, and services, such as creating a framework to make Washington labor market information easier to find and developing research-grounded design principles for inclusive oncology care, and leading expert research, such as conducting discovery and evaluation to build an award-winning accessible digital experience to explore state parks.
Organizations I’ve partnered with include:

Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center

JD Sports

King County Metro

Olympia Intercity Transit
