Hi there, I’m an
Interaction Designer
at Cradlepoint.
As a seasoned interaction designer with two decades of design experience, my journey has taken me through a diverse range of design disciplines, from User Experience and Visual Design to Interface Design and beyond. My skillset has been honed by the challenges I've faced and the projects I've worked on, from crafting intuitive logos and icons to developing striking sales presentations for print. My passion for design is matched only by my dedication to my craft, and I'm always striving to push myself to new heights and create truly transformative experiences for all.

About Me
I have an extensive background as a UX Interaction Designer. With a combined 6+ years of experience with Cradlepoint and Hewlett-Packard. I have a strong eye for design, and a great understanding of user-centered design principles, and I am familiar with industry best practices and standards. I can create user flows, wireframes, and prototypes, using digital and old-school (pencil and paper) technologies, and I can transform design concepts into reality. I have a working knowledge of HTML, CSS, and designing for mobile markets. I can design and manipulate images and graphics using Sketch, Figma, Axure, Photoshop, and Illustrator. I have an excellent understanding of typography, page layout, and color theory.
I am a self-motivated team player, with an optimistic attitude and I am enthusiastic about learning new technologies. I can work within tight deadlines and constant design changes. I have great communication skills, strong organizational skills, and good analytic and problem-solving skills.
