Hi, I'm Adam.

I’m a Seattle-based, multi-disciplinary designer who has created complex application systems and enterprise-scale experiences.

I have over 5 years of experience in UX, visual , writing, and web design.

Outside of work you can find me reading with my wife, chilling with my cats, painting landscapes, weightlifting, playing music, and writing.

Process

1 Research

Every good design starts with good data. I create research tests and workshop with cross functional stakeholders and design peers to understand user needs. Defining the problem is essential to a successful solution. Slides + FigJam + Adobe Creative Suite

2 Design

Interaction design begins where research left off. I create iterative mockups and wireframes that clearly depict the critical user journey. I both build from the ground up and use components from an existing design system. Reviewing with colleagues keeps my work accountable. Figma + Adobe XD + Sketch + Adobe Creative Suite

3 Prototype

I often create prototypes of the designs I make. They make it easy to share work with stakeholders, demonstrate example behavior to engineers, and provide materials for further user research. Figma + ProtoPie + Visual Studio Code

4 Deliver

Working alongside engineers and project management, I monitor implementation through bug bashes and QA. My work as an interaction designer is involved from the beginning of a project’s ideation to its launch. Figma + Slides + Visual Studio Code
