A Short Overview of My Design Career

I earned my BFA in graphic design from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. While still in school I signed up for an internship at the Ann Arbor Hands-On Museum and upon my graduation was offered a full time position as a graphic artist. Although I primarily worked as a print and digital visual designer, I got a first taste of user experience working on interactive exhibits with a team of designers and builders.

When I moved to Los Angeles, the UX scene exploded and my fascination with user experience and interface continued to grow. Starting as a Graphic Designer at the Artime Group I quickly earned my stripes as a UI/UX Designer, where along side VP of Interactive Technologies I worked on a myriad of projects for clients in B2B / B2B2C Manufacturing, Transportation, Healthcare and Startup sectors.

Nowadays, I live and work in Los Angeles, seeking new creative challenges where I can explore new techniques and expand my skill set.
