Hi, I’m Caitlyn. It’s so nice to meet you!

I am a User Experience Researcher at D2L.

I am finishing up a Master’s in Systems Design Engineering with a thesis in comparing interaction techniques for visualizing data using Generative AI. My research is in the Human-Computer Interaction field at University of Waterloo from Waterloo, Canada.

I hold a Bachelor of Applied Science in Mechatronics Engineering (BASc, 2023) from University of Waterloo where I graduated with Distinction.

During university, I had the absolute best mentors during my internships/co-ops. Some recent ones were:

• User Experience Researcher → D2L, Waterloo (Sep - Nov 2025)

• Manufacturing Engineering Intern → ecobee, Toronto (Jan - Aug 2022)

• Research Assistant → University of Waterloo, Waterloo (May - Aug 2021)

• Software Developer → Systematix, Waterloo (Jan - Mar 2020)
