Multidisciplinary designer with 13 years of experience
I'm Tyrel, a multidisciplinary designer with 13 years of experience designing brands and web experiences. My design career in the startup ecosystem that has spanned across B2B SaaS, Education, Consumer Brands, and Web3. I've led design and built teams at incredible companies in the ever-evolving startup landscape, like Evercast (Emmy-award winning remote-collaboration software). Over the years I've developed a diverse skillset and knack for blending creative design with strategic business objectives.

Projects

Evercast

I joined the Evercast team as the first employee, and led product design and web/marketing design solo for 18 months, before building the design team. I hired a team of 4 designers, and led them for another 18 months.See More

Trainual

I worked with Trainual to build a comprehensive design system + component library in Figma, while also redesigning some larger components for their platform. The design system consisted of over 400 unique components.See More

Massdriver

Over the past year, I've led all of Massdriver's web and marketing design (via PixelPass). While I didn't design their logo, I did a full transformation of their visual identity, color palette and redesigned their entire website.See More
