Summary

Hi, I'm Mia — a UX, web, and graphic designer who loves bringing brands to life through thoughtful user experiences, bold, beautiful visuals, and purposeful digital products. From digital interfaces to social media graphics, I blend strategy and creativity to make design that works and wows.

Biography

I started out in graphic design, creating campaigns for brands like Nike and Samsung, before expanding into multimedia and web design, where visuals, motion, and interactivity come together to shape digital experiences. My curiosity about the why behind design decisions led me into UX design, beginning with a contract at Verizon that sparked a deeper focus on user needs and product strategy. From there, I designed a media management platform at RealPage in the property tech space, created internal tools supporting eCommerce, documentation, and quality teams at Texas Instruments, and took on a lead role at International Market Centers, designing market platforms, apps, and exhibitor portals. Most recently, I contributed to the support and learning ecosystem at Trimble, helping streamline access to knowledge and community experiences. Through all of this, I’ve developed a multidisciplinary approach that blends graphic, web, and UX design.

Other things I like to do

When I’m not designing, I’m usually making music-I’ve got a degree in it and still love picking up my guitar and singing. I’m based in Portland, Oregon, where I take full advantage of the Pacific Northwest’s endless hiking and biking trails. Lately, I’ve been diving into digital marketing, experimenting with 3D graphics, and exploring the world of eCommerce-because I’m never not creating something.
