Headshot of Stephanie Vasko

I’m Stephanie, a UX researcher and experience designer interested in working with interdisciplinary teams and in designing fun and thoughtful extended reality experiences. Throughout my career, I have used my love for experimentation, research, and discovery to try new techniques and tools, synthesize qualitative and quantitative data, and design innovative and creative solutions to a wide variety of topics.

My previous clients include Michigan State University, the National Science Foundation. the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, and the American Association for the Advancement of Science.

Currently I work as a Senior User Experience Researcher for the College of Arts and Letters and Mesh Research at Michigan State University.

Outside of work, I am an experimental artist and researcher. I work with sound (field recordings, virtual synthesis, hardware synthesis, circuit bending), sculpture, video, photography, and extended reality. I explore embodied experiences, warping perceptions, and creating mashups of cutting-edge and obsolete technologies.
