Beth, but in 300 characters

With a background in sociology and systems thinking, I approach design problems by blending the theoretical with the practical, always striving to make complex challenges feel intuitive and approachable.

Design research is a process that should simplify as much as it discovers. My focus is on creating solutions that feel natural and empowering—designs that support human creativity, intuition, and connection.

Quotes

There is a common throughline in the opportunities that Bethany pursues and it relates to service, connection with others, and putting herself in a situation where she can exchange ideas and learn from others. I strongly recommend Bethany Cummings, without any reservations.
