“Eliminating complexities in your processes, designs, and life creates a more streamlined and effective solution.”
— Inside Design, Simplicity is Not a Style “To complicate is easy, to simplify is hard. To complicate, just add, everyone is able to complicate. Few are able to simplify.”
— Bruno Munari “If I have the choice of making something the user's problem, or making it my problem, I’ll make it my problem every time. That’s my job.”
— Jeremy Keith

About

I specialize in planning, designing, and developing user interfaces into intuitive, engaging, and fully-responsive websites. With 19 years of experience in UI/UX, I have worked as a designer, email marketer, web developer, and team manager. Throughout my career, I have designed and built websites, formulated strategies, executed campaigns, and provided direction on creative and user experience. I have improved engagement and conversion based on analytics and user testing. Although I am familiar with them, I choose not to rely on pre-defined frameworks or pre-built themes. I'm an artist, and I like to start with a blank canvas and create things from scratch. When I'm not designing and coding I like to ride my bike, cheer for the Orioles, go out to dinner, read comics, listen to music, and critique 80's pro wrestling.
