Every design begins with a story
Growing up in Maine, there was not a lot of opportunity for tech roles. Being a lifelong Mainer, I knew my best option was to seek remote roles if I wanted to stay in this beautiful state. Remote work has allowed me the pleasure of working with incredibly talented people to create digital products for both business and consumer use. It has given me the great opportunity to work in sports, healthcare, education, advertising, and non-profits.
Skills
My Specializations
Product Design
I create digital products with unique and innovative user experiences utilizing Figma, Sketch, FigJam, Adobe Creative Cloud, and other software. I have experience with various Agile methodologies and Jira instances.
Rapid Prototyping
I build rapid prototypes to align with agile methodologies. I believe that no design is complete and continuous improvement through well planned sprints is imperative. This is achieved through creating a collaborative and trustful relationship with colleagues.
User Research & Testing
I believe that good design is data driven. I have experience with both conducting, leading, and receiving user research and translating that into business solutions. This research has involved analytics, use cases, personas, journey mapping, interviews, etc.
