BASIC®
Design Director

As a Design Director at BASIC/DEPT®, I led the design direction of digital products and brand experiences for BASIC@Google.

As a manager, I oversaw and supported the career growth of 5 -6 employees.

As a design team leader, I was responsible for presenting our work to stakeholders.

I applied UX/UI design to create intuitive and visually appealing digital experiences, worked with teams on large-scale design systems to ensure brand consistency, and collaborated closely with clients to ensure their needs were met and their expectations exceeded.

I also had a blast creating some fun illustrations.
