About Me
​
Visual Designer with diverse experience in both business-to-business and business-to-consumer graphic and UX projects.
Having started my career as part of traditional marketing teams, I then took on a role at a tech start-up that required me to learn and develop my strong visual skills into both front-end and back-end user interfaces while supporting executives, sales, marketing, engineering and services teams.
Since then I have helped bring into market consumer video consumption apps as well as market them to some of the largest providers in the world.
​
I am currently part of a design system team, where I design, support, and aid in the accessibility of products used by a variety of personas, from consumer to enterprise.
