Designing Clear, Simple, User-Centered Experiences

Crafting clear, thoughtful digital experiences.

About Me

I’m a UX & Web Designer based in Omaha, Nebraska, with a background that blends visual design, UX design, and front-end development. Over the last decade, I’ve worked across product teams to improve usability, create accessible digital experiences, and simplify complex systems for real users. I enjoy turning ambiguous problems into clear, structured solutions through thoughtful design and collaboration.

My strength lies in bridging strategy, visual craft, and implementation—designing interfaces that not only look good, but work well. I’m passionate about clarity, simplicity, and creating experiences people can immediately understand. No matter the project, my goal is to design products that feel natural, intuitive, and genuinely helpful.

My UX Approach

My approach is rooted in design thinking and centered around clarity, usability, and purposeful iteration.

Discover: Understand users, goals, constraints, and define the real problem.
Structure: Create user flows, IA, and clear pathways through the experience.
Design: Produce wireframes, prototypes, and polished UI based on patterns and best practices.
Validate: Test early, gather feedback, and refine concepts based on insights.
Deliver: Collaborate with developers and stakeholders to ensure smooth, accurate implementation.

How I Work

Collaboration First: I work best in open, collaborative environments where ideas move freely and the best solutions emerge together.
Clear Communication: I explain decisions simply, build alignment quickly, and keep teams moving in the same direction.
User-Centered Thinking: I advocate for the user, simplify complexity, and create experiences that feel natural and intuitive.
Practical & Flexible: Low-ego, iterative, and adaptable—focused on delivering outcomes, not being precious about pixels.

Tools

Outside of Work

Outside of design, I love running, traveling with my family, and working on creative side projects—from photography to home builds. Anything that lets me create something meaningful.
