Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolCaroline Foster is a User Experience Researcher with 11 years of experience designing and evaluating technology at scale, currently shaping product direction at Facebook from her base in Portland. She blends rigorous pathfinding and evaluative research with systems thinking to surface user needs that influence implementation and long-term strategy across complex ecosystems. With an academic foundation in Human-Computer Interaction (MS, 4.0) and a history of translating historical and spatial data into interactive tools, she brings both scholarly rigor and hands-on prototyping skills (d3, web tools, GIS). Her background spans industry and academia, including impactful projects at Intel, BMW, and Georgia Tech where she turned research into published work and widely noticed civic tools. Caroline values thorough, shareable research and is as comfortable synthesizing stakeholder insights as she is running field studies or sketching new interaction concepts. Outside work she stays curious—running, hiking with her dog, and exploring places—which informs her human-centered approach to long-term product thinking.
