About

I’m a multidisciplinary UX/Product Designer and Web Strategist from Sacramento, CA with 20 years of experience crafting engaging, accessible digital experiences. My background spans UX/UI design, content strategy, and web systems leadership, with deep hands-on expertise in Figma, Adobe Creative Suite, and CMS platforms like WordPress, AEM, and SharePoint.

I’ve led large-scale design and migration projects for Microsoft Education, built scalable content systems for Berry Companies, and launched my own creative studio, Blizzard Branding, serving small businesses and enterprise clients. What sets me apart is my ability to bridge creative design thinking with technical execution and operational strategy—delivering products that are both beautiful and efficient.

I’m especially passionate about accessible, inclusive design, and I thrive in collaborative environments where UX, content, and technology intersect.
