I am a Graphic Designer with a traditional background who successfully transitioned into the field of User Interaction and User Experience Design. Leveraging a robust foundation in design principles and typography, I bring extensive digital design expertise and a proven track record of over 20 years in the industry, with a focus on UI/UX design for the past 14 years.
What distinguishes me is not only my proficiency in design but also my fervor for navigating the intricacies of design implementation within comprehensive sets of requirements and constraints. My strength lies in collaborating seamlessly with developers to achieve optimal design outcomes. I excel at the challenge of maximizing design changes while adhering to project parameters. However, I am equally enthusiastic about recommending innovative solutions that enhance the product's usability, demonstrating my commitment to pushing boundaries and delivering exceptional user experiences
My technical proficiency encompasses a range of design tools, including Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Invision, Zeplin, Sketch, Figma, and Microsoft Office 365. Additionally, I possess familiarity with Adobe After Effects, HTML, CSS, ActionScript, 3D design, video editing, and sound editing.
Beyond technical capabilities, my professional experience includes navigating strategy, communication, and effectively operating within the dynamics of a large corporate environment. I am adept at both leading teams and being a valuable team member, showcasing adaptability in solo and collaborative work environments.
I hold a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Graphic Design from James Madison University, where I honed my expertise in design principles, art history, and visual communication.
Building on this foundation, I pursued a Master of Fine Arts degree in Interaction Design from the Rochester Institute of Technology. This advanced program expanded my knowledge across diverse areas, including interaction principles, animation, video and sound editing, coding, and experience design. This comprehensive education equips me with a multifaceted skill set to excel in the dynamic field of design.
In addition to my technical skills, my natural inclination toward social interaction has proven to be a valuable asset. I actively promote connection and camaraderie within my workgroup, fostering a collaborative and enjoyable environment for all team members.
