For the past 25 years, I’m proud to say I have been continuously employed as an designer: creating print and digital art for far ranging products and services from florists, to trash cans, to travel destinations, to touchscreen applications that help patients check in quickly for their outpatient surgery. 

For 12 years, as a user experience designer, I have been a member of passionate, dedicated teams taking on the challenge of optimizing complex healthcare processes. I focus on creating a pleasing visual experience, identifying opportunities for efficiency, and producing intuitive user flows. I enjoy going to hospitals and clinics to observe nurses, physicians, and patients in order to capture the voice of the customer and determine how to integrate user input with business goals. I value rapid prototyping to test hypotheses and monitoring the success of technology projects with post launch methods such as surveys and analytics. 

My goal is to continue making art and contributing meaningful work. I enjoy the challenge of keeping up with the constant changes in technology and evolving work methodologies. I value the relationships and support of many technology networking groups that connect me with similar minds who are passionate about collaboration, creativity and continuous learning.

To know that someone is interacting with a website or an app that I helped to create, at a time when they are looking for health and healing, is extremely rewarding.
