Hi there!

I'm Sophie.

Senior UX & Product Researcher (PhD) specializing in the intersection of Agentic UX, AI strategy, and complex data ecosystems. Currently Lead at Elia Group, defining the user research strategy for AI-driven marketplaces and internal LLM interfaces.

I don’t just deliver insights; I architect the UX systems that make data actionable. My work focuses on Atomic Research, Explainable AI (XAI), and scaling UX maturity within highly technical engineering workstreams.

Key Strategic Impact:

⚡ [AI Governance & UX] Designing Human-in-the-loop (HITL) workflows to optimize engineering productivity through intuitive AI interaction.

🏛️ [UX Research Ops] Architected the group’s first UXR repository to enable evidence-based prioritization and insight democratization.

🛰️ [Strategic Procurement] Co-led the EU-tender for group-wide data cataloging, ensuring UX requirements drove the selection of multi-million euro solutions.

Based in Brussels and available for remote/international senior leadership roles, I bridge the gap between academic rigor 🎓 and pragmatic UX & Product Strategy 👾.
