About
I'm a versatile creative with experience in graphic design, web design, marketing, and UI/UX. At Bigleaf Networks in Portland, OR, I joined as the startup's 3rd employee, witnessing remarkable growth from 5 to 100 team members. As the sole designer for five years, I played a crucial role in establishing and maintaining Bigleaf's brand and voice. My responsibilities included web design, illustration, marketing emails, print collateral, trade show signage, social media content, technical & product documents, and all other visually branded materials. Additionally, I took on the role of UX Designer for three years, helping to lead the initial redesign stages for Bigleaf's web dashboard.
Outside of work, my greatest joy in life comes from creating designs and artwork for friends and family.
