Visual Design x UI

I have experience in Visual Design and User Interface on mobile and web. I provide visual elements, tackle UI issues and solve UX problems alongside Project Managers + Developers.

Branding

I am familiar with brand identity standards, logo ideation, illustration and vector work. I'm an advocate of strong consistency of a company brand in different mediums. 

Print / Personal / Illustration

I am passionate on graphic design and illustration. Proud to showcase great design work, both commercial and personal.

TEAMWORK & PROCESS

I am able to collaborate with cross-functional teams ranging from fellow creatives (Junior, Senior, Art Director, Creative Director), Developers (on-site, offshore), Marketing (internal, partners) and Product Managers.

I am familiar with the Agile environment of Discover/Design/Develop/Test/Deploy from my startup and corporate experience. Consulting/Freelance gave me experience on regimented hours from clients with varying budget, time and scope.

TECHNICAL

I work with Sketch on web and app-based work as it is PM and Dev collaborative friendly. I'm familiar with Adobe Creative Suite - Photoshop, Illustrator, Indesign and XD. Recently I use Figma for similar web UI and prototype work.

Knowledgeable in Mac workspace and adaptable in Windows. Able to work with Excel, Powerpoint (office suites) and similarly Google's office suite. 

Asana, Trello, JIRA, OKTA, Omnigraffle, Balsamic and other numerous task-management methods were commonly used by my Project and Product managers past and present. I am familiar with Sprint and Release cycles involved in an AGILE environment.

VECTOR work

I am proficient in vector illustration (illustration as a whole), to create images and icons for both digital and print use.

ABOUT

I'm a BFA Graphic Design graduate from SJSU residing in San Francisco, CA.
I'd like to collaborate and provide my creative abilities in Visual Design/UI, as well as branding, typography and illustration, to which I am highly interested and passionate about.

6 years: 2006-2008, 2017-present Marketing Design
10 years: 2009-present Visual Design + UI in startup, corporate & freelance.

Someday I'll own a motorcycle, reside in Italy and live on the second floor of a baker's shop. 
That's 20 years from now. At the moment I'll continue to do design—it's who I am and what I do.
