Product designer, design technologist
Hi there!
I'm a product designer and design technologist with extensive experience in marketing websites and conversion forms. I also focus on design systems and branding, information architecture, and visual design.
Development-wise, I have some experience with React, Sass, Javascript build tools like Webpack and Grunt, and static generators like Hugo and Jekyll. I do not consider myself a programmer or software engineer, but aim to ensure good design translates into good code and a good user experience for the end user.
Specialities
Design systems
Collaborating with developers, branding, and product to plan out effective, flexible design systems and tokens that work in both design tool and code contexts, along with detailed documentation.
UX ideation
Work with product and other stakeholders to architect new and updated experiences for the user, making decisions based on data and commonly-accepted best practices.
UX/UI web design
Design and build content and marketing websites using a variety of tools and languages, including Figma, React, Sass, Gatsby, Hugo, and more.
Other pursuits
The intersection of gaming and social media is an area I'm well-versed in, and the streaming/influencer industry is an area I'd like to explore in my career.
Applicant tracking software and recruitment marketing is an area that fascinates me.
I'm also interested in the product and UX approaches in minimizing abuse and harassment on social platforms.
