About Me
I have held many titles during my career, Graphic Designer, Art Director, Systems Engineer, Project Manager and now I am excited to hold a new one, UX Designer. My past experience in design and technology has provided me with an excellent foundation of skills for learning and practicing user-centric design.
I have been working with teams and solving problems my entire career. My success in all of these roles has always come from my ability to listen to my teammates and customers and deliver on their requests. Now, I am listening to users and utilizing their feedback to create designs that are not just visually appealing but more importantly, seamless user experiences.
I enjoy thinking through problems from start to finish and I am most satisfied when the research delivers insightful data that can be turned into aesthetically pleasing interfaces that create enjoyable user experiences.
I am currently available for contract or full-time work.
Hobby
I enjoy taking photographs of anything I find interesting or beautiful. Below are some examples of my photos.
