SEAMUS MCPEAKE

I'm a mixed-method researcher who blends research, systems thinking, and design.

Role: Primary Research, Secondary Design

Background & Interests

I’m currently a graduate student in the University of Washington’s HCDE program, with a focus on UX research and product design. 


My work sits at the intersection of research, strategy, and execution from uncovering user needs and system constraints to designing interfaces that feel intentional and human. I’ve worked on projects ranging from large organizational systems to early stage products built with small teams.


I care about clarity, accessibility, and designing solutions that scale without losing empathy.

Interests outside of work: I enjoy focusing on my physical health, analyzing game design, and creating clothes!

Additionally, I loved playing instruments and keeping up with new music releases as well. Feel free to recommend any artists or songs you enjoy! I'm always trying to to discover new music.
