Great design starts with empathy.

I focus on understanding the needs, behaviors, and goals of the end-user to create interfaces that feel intuitive and effortless. Accessibility and clarity are always top priorities, ensuring every user has a seamless experience.

Technical Proficiency

Design doesn’t live in static mockups.

With knowledge of HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and frameworks, I can design with implementation in mind. This helps me create solutions that aren’t just visually appealing but also efficient, scalable, and practical for developers to build.

Collaboration & Adaptability

All your questions, answered

What kind of design work do you specialize in?

I focus on graphic and interactive design, with a strong background in web design, UI/UX, and branding. I love creating user-friendly, visually engaging websites and digital experiences.

Do you code as well as design?

Yes! I’m comfortable working with HTML, CSS, and frameworks like Bootstrap. While I’m not a full-stack developer, I design with implementation in mind and collaborate closely with developers to make sure the final product looks and works as intended.

What tools do you use in your design process?

Adobe Creative Suite (XD, Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign, Dreamweaver, Lightroom, Bridge, Acrobat, Animate, Premiere Pro, After Effects), Visual Studio Code, & Microsoft Office (PowerPoint, Word, Outlook, SharePoint, Teams, Excel).

What is your design process like?

I usually start by understanding your goals and your audience. From there, I create wireframes or prototypes to explore layout and functionality, then move into polished designs. Finally, I work hand-in-hand with developers (or code certain elements myself) to ensure the final product matches the vision.
