Frontend prototypes and development
Scaleable, high-traffic user interfaces are difficult to design, develop and maintain. The UI that works requires planning, testing, and prototyping.
Modern web application interfaces are complex systems that often rely in various data sources, frontend frameworks, state management and design systems. Designing a system that works is hard enough, but integrating it into your workflow is difficult, especially if you have a large team, or an engineering department with many domains and teams.
I've created, imagined, built, and delivered many differnt user interfaces, and have 20 years of enterprise experience to share with your team.

Creative production
As a published writer and working artist, I know content matters. It's no longer enough to have content, it must be professionally produced and of the highest quality.
Your content, the words and pictures in your application, the documentation your users or employees use, your marketing copy, and everything your customers see is part of your brand. It's not enough to have a style guide, you need a visual guide, consistent photography, illustration, and presentation.
Production is sometimes complex. I have many years of experience in creative direction, oganizing still or video creation, planning and editing publications, as well as the actual creation itself. I've directed both my own projects and client projects, and worked as principle artist on both digital and print projects.
I can create for you, or direct your creative project.
