United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I’ve had the good fortune of working for/on a diverse and notable roster of clients with demonstrated ability to drive engagement. My experience is extensive, but my expertise lies in user centered design, brand management, art direction, and creative leadership. I’m a jack of several trades—knowledgeable in UI principles and UX best practices; designing wireframes, optimized landing pages, interactive prototypes, and design systems; to more traditional marketing collateral like white papers, presentation decks, logos, display ads, social assets, and emails.
