Hello! I’m Sylvie. I care about turning complexity into things people can actually use. My background in librarianship and digital preservation shapes how I approach product work, thinking not just about what ships today, but how it holds up and stays understandable over time. I'm drawn to the messy middle of product development: translating ambiguous needs into clear requirements, and working collaboratively with stakeholders to get there. My goal is to help people find what they need, understand it, and trust the product enough to keep going.

In my previous life, I played accordion and sang in an Irish pop/folk band. Today, you can probably find me reading or doing a crossword puzzle on my porch, weaving in my basement studio, or on a bike ride around my Chicago neighborhood.
