My name is Claire Nicolas. I am a French-American born and raised in the Bay Area.
I am a trained biomedical engineer with prior clinical trial experience in the neurotechnology space and I'm now currently looking for roles in usability, accessibility, human factors, and regulatory affairs within med-tech.
When I'm not working, you can find me thrifting, running, or knitting/crocheting!
I believe that the more you work with your end-users, the more meaningful your product will be. I want to help med-tech and assistive tech develop more meaningful products through design, usability and human-factors work.
