ABOUT ME
Behind the Designs
I’m a UX/UI Designer with 12+ years of experience designing and developing websites, apps, and digital experiences for B2B and B2C, small to enterprise level clients. My work blends creative design with data-driven insights to architect seamless, intuitive, and conversion-focused user journeys.
Over the years, I’ve collaborated with brands like King’s Hawaiian, Gildan, Salvation Army, Clorox, Harvard Business Review, and American Apparel, guiding projects from concept to launch while aligning design strategy with business goals. I am skilled across platforms including Shopify, Magento, BigCommerce and WordPress. I bring a full-stack perspective combining UX auditing, wireframing, prototyping and development, to deliver solutions that are both beautiful and functional.
