I take branded print and digital projects from concept to final asset, all with the end user in mind. For print, that work includes prepress, vendor coordination, and press checks. For digital, that work includes proofs and prototypes. I’m used to working on several titles at the same time, many with tight deadlines.
I love typography, and I have a sharp eye for layout, color, and visual hierarchy. I start with content, photography, and graphics, and I make designs that put the audience first. I do not need much direction, and I learn new production tools and AI tools quickly.
My UX/UI certification started with simple curiosity: How can I make an experience easier for the user? I designed program screens and collaborated with developers. I also designed a full concept app and an interactive prototype in Figma, from research to design system. Next, I will add campaign strategy, analytics, and content skills through a certificate in digital marketing from UW. I will finish the certificate in Spring 2027.
I believe in good design from cover to cover: clear typography, consistent standards, and communication that helps the user.
