Hi, I'm Rachel - designer, illustrator, southpaw, and nacho connoisseur. Unfortunately, you won't find evidence of my nacho plate conquests here, but you will find samples of my design experience below - and my professional achievements are far less cheesy. 

Building on a foundation of 10+ years in multi-disciplinary design, I have anchored my career in Product Design, where I am inspired by the mix of science, business acumen, and empathy it requires. Following a rewarding period of freelancing and travel, I'm looking forward to recommitting to a full-time, in-house role with a creative and collaborative team. If your team is looking for a designer who can elevate craft while ensuring strategic alignment, let's connect.
