Experienced UI/UX Designer | Apparel Professional
With a Bachelor's degree in Apparel and Merchandising from Colorado State University and a User Experience Design Immersive program at General Assembly, I have honed my skills in both design and business. As a Lead UI/UX Designer at Wayhome, I led a team to enhance the application process and optimize layout, resulting in the successful launch of a responsive app. Previously, as a Product Designer at Wscripted, I managed a team to design digital wireframes and a high-fidelity interactive prototype for a new SaaS platform. My experience also includes serving as a Customer Care Expert at Wix.com, where I improved team performance and attained a 95% average satisfaction rate. As a Licensing Coordinator Intern at Hybrid Apparel, I monitored approval processes and collaborated with internal teams and licensors. My passion for creating seamless user experiences and my background in apparel and merchandising drive my commitment to innovative and user-centric design.
