Summary

Hi, I'm Mia — a UX, product, and web designer who helps brands from the first concept to the finished product. I bring enterprise UX experience together with hands-on web design and Framer development, plus the brand, print, and social work that keeps everything consistent — all from one place.

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 — as a UX Designer, I designed a media management platform at RealPage, contributed to internal tools and market-facing apps at Texas Instruments, and supported knowledge and community experiences at Trimble. That range across brand, product, and UX design is exactly why I can be the one place a growing brand needs, from concept through launch.

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.
