David G
@dvdgrgrc
Multidisciplinary designer blending UX, web, and AI-driven creative technologies.
What I'm looking for
I am a multidisciplinary creative professional with over a decade of experience designing digital products, branding, websites, and generative art. I combine user-centered thinking with strong visual sensibilities to deliver cohesive, modern digital experiences.
I've led design efforts across startups and agencies, from founding and running client projects to leading XR and AI-driven product teams. My work spans end-to-end product design, research, prototyping, and visual systems that improve engagement and usability.
Notable achievements include designing an XR simulation and training platform, inventing an early mobile grocery delivery app in Canada, and increasing sign-ups by 75% through UX improvements at a fintech company. I integrate AI workflows into design and music-production pipelines to explore new creative possibilities.
I thrive in cross-functional teams, champion metric-driven design, and seek roles where I can bridge design thinking with emerging technologies like AI, XR, and music tech to create impactful, user-focused products.
