I've worked with world-renowned brands across diverse industries such as education, technology, fitness, and real estate. In addition, I have 5 years of experience in user research from previous positions as a User Acceptance Tester at Apple corporate and a Creative Instructor at Apple retail, where I attained an extensive understanding of the user experience. I delivered 7k+ sessions and workshops, helping customers start up and run their businesses and digital lives on Apple devices and software.

I made significant contributions as a User Acceptance Tester, collaborating closely with developers to address language and system expertise needs for global software to uncover issues with the user experience, user flow, and localization. As a Creative Instructor at Apple, I gained invaluable insights into user behavior and needs while training customers. This unique perspective allowed me to witness firsthand how users interacted with the software before and after the updates I worked on.

Most recently, as a founder of my freelance company Velo Creations, I’ve developed brand identities, marketing materials, and designed websites with UX design strategies and good design principles for hōmskool, an educational food service and real estate clients, Coldwell Banker, The Ryan Tradition, and Hedmark Investments. In another recent project, I was the UX Designer of a tech recruiting platform where I streamlined the design process and iterated mockups resulting in an enhanced user experience to increase engagement with job seekers.

I’m looking for a full-time mostly remote position as a Product Designer with a focus on visual design for a tech company that inspires and appreciates its users. I am eager to leverage my user research and visual design expertise to create transformative user interfaces that resonate with people and empower them to connect more effectively with the world around them.
