I started my career as a technical writer for a company that makes playground equipment. Designing the installation instructions and seeing how people interacted with them started my life-long interest in designing with the end user in mind. I then worked in marketing for an environmental engineering firm which strengthened this communication skill. My current position is as a graphic designer for one of the largest architectural firms in the world. As my designs speak to people locally and world-wide I continue to explore how I can design directly for them. My design passion stems from thinking about the user experience and how design touches our lives.
