David Roberts
@davidroberts
I am an award-winning creative and product designer specializing in UI/UX, branding, and storytelling for digital products.
What I'm looking for
I am an award-winning creative and product designer with over seven years designing intuitive, high-impact visuals for brands, SaaS startups, and cultural institutions.
I specialize in interaction design, branding, and storytelling across digital platforms, bringing a strategy-first mindset and deep curiosity for human-centered design. I led UI/UX work for 40+ global clients and built Roberts Templates used by over 500 designers worldwide.
As a freelancer and contractor, I manage end-to-end projects from discovery to delivery, integrating A/B testing and AI tools for rapid prototyping and measurable improvements. At Atlas & Bloom I led a visual refresh that boosted engagement by 43% in three months and I interned at Pentagram, refining my approach to cultural storytelling.
I thrive in teams that value clarity, experimentation, and thoughtful execution, contributing design systems, modular components, and cross-functional collaboration. I'm looking to join product-driven organizations where I can continue to scale systems, mentor peers, and drive meaningful user outcomes.
