I provided graphic and web design services for clients ranging from small business owners to major tech companies and Fortune 500 companies.

After taking my experience from consulting and forming my first design studio, I shifted my focus and rebranded myself to have a greater impact on the world by partnering with purpose-driven organizations.

Collaborated with and coached designers through complex design problems, product ideation, and any interpersonal issues that arose. Helped designers expand their expertise and deepen their impact. Took responsibility for quality across product and brand design; this included promoting design guidelines, establishing a design system, and setting a high design bar. Partnered with product, engineering, and other stakeholders to ensure projects were well-defined and successfully executed. Fostered and championed a design culture across the organization.

Developed creative design solutions for Everlaw’s document review platform; took highly complex workflows and created comprehensible user interfaces. Worked closely with cross-functional teams to deliver the best user experiences. Ensured brand consistency throughout Everlaw’s product, systems, and marketing collateral/campaigns.

Conceptualized, designed, and executed digital and print projects, including websites, landing pages, microsites, advertisements, emails, marketing collateral, presentations, icons, event graphics, and other lead generation assets. Managed multiple workflows in a deadline driven environment. Collaborated with designers, developers, copywriters, and product marketing managers.
