About Me
Hello! My name is Allison.
̌
I solve problems through design
I am from Poughkeepsie, New York. I have great appreciation for beautiful things, I shoot 35mm film, and chase adventures… everywhere!
I am a human centered designer. I create easy and enjoyable experiences for mostly digital products. I advocate for the end user so that your products are beautiful, but functional and intuitive first.
Sometimes my title is User Experience Designer, sometimes it’s User Interface or Visual Designer… often times it means a mixture of all.
Research first, design second. When in doubt, test, and test some more.
