Joan McCarthy
UX Strategist
As a UX Strategist, Joan helps our strategy, design, and digital teams create user-centered digital experiences that enable our clients to serve their audiences more effectively. Or, as she says, “making everything better, online.”
“I like helping organizations who make a difference in the world to make even more of a difference. Plus, I enjoy having smart, interesting, fun people to work and play with! And getting my quads in better shape, going up and down all these stairs.”
You can't live without...
Peter (my soulmate, my husband, my designated driver), and my kayak.
My ideal workday includes...
Using my talents and skills to delight clients, teammates, and people who I will never have a chance to meet!
Your favorite view in the world is...
Watching airplanes take off and land at Logan airport at night, sitting on our deck. We live on a little hill miles and miles way but yes those specs of light do come from Logan. I checked on Google Maps.
My (not exactly) five favorite things are...
Nobska, friends, my bike and my skis, our wood stove, Tom Brady, (plus, Peter, my kayak, and our deck!)
