After graduating from the University of Wisconsin, Madison, I left for Minneapolis – a town brimming with corporate headquarters. My time working for area agencies and corporations has left me with a priceless education in the art of building robust customer connections.
My primary role as Senior Web Designer has been to develop concepts through final digital files for marketing and eCommerce sites that promote products and services throughout the US and internationally. My experience includes designing components as well as entire web sites.
The process of creating relevant and engaging product components and online experiences has been job #1 for me. This has involved understanding client needs and delivering smart solutions that provide value, optimized usability, while satisfying technical specifications.
My role as a Web and UI/UX designer has been to work directly with marketing staff, product owners, writers, and developers to ensure design is properly applied to products. To reach that goal wireframes are often used as a way to map out the user experience efficiently for internal and external product review.
I'm adept at producing concepts through final files for marketing email campaigns. I'm skilled at producing working wireframes, design mockups and authoring. I enjoy working with marketing staff, content strategy and writers to come up with effective and informative designs that have excellent response rates.
My experience includes developing concepts through final digital files for social media and banner advertisements that are both responsive and mobile friendly. My experience also includes reformatting ads to meet publication technical, resolution and media specifications.
Finding new and creative directions while staying true to Brand guidelines is a space that I've worked within while at Thomson Reuters and Strategic Education Inc. I'm experienced at creating new identities or working within existing Brands taking them where they need to go.
