I am a typical out doors kinda of design nut, working remotely for a company out of Chicago designing UX flows based on research and data while spending my free time hiking and camping in the Black Hills of South Dakota
Prior to starting my career, I attended the University of Wisconsin — Eau Claire, where I graduated with a BA emphasizing graphic design. During my last year of school, I interned in Madison WI, with a local designer, Matt Schaser, working with clients on both print and web projects.
During my school years, I became interested in the web and after a few brief intro courses, I figured out how to use online forums combined with trial and error to learn how to pick up coding languages. In this manner I moved through HTML, CSS, JavaScript to WordPress and PHP. I have since moved on to Ruby on Rails for back end platform that allows me to spin up apps quickly.
My day to day has moved be back towards design, to focus on the UX and UI for a small in house product team. As the Lead UX I make it my passion to work directly with our data team and UX research to understand the real needs of our end users and adovcate for them to the buiness. I also work hard to communicate with the engineering team to give them insight and voice in the product desicsions
