Welcome to my website!

My name is Nicholas (Nick for short) and I am a designer with 8+ years of professional design experience. Outside of work I really love being outside – camping, fishing, surfing, sailing, skiing, triathlons, you name it. But recently my wife and I purchased a small farm and most of my free time goes toward renovating and landscaping that, which is fun in its own way.

My tech career started with a certificate from community college which got me a job in website tech support. I excelled at bug troubleshooting and the integration of 3rd party applications into our internal systems, climbing to tier 3 support and eventually leading the front end bug team. I then moved into client onboarding, working with new clients to develop brand standards and design systems as Onboarding Art Director. I currently work with our UX team & product owners to do industry research, product design and launch solutions that anticipate client needs in a rapidly changing, competitive industry.

At my core I am a problem solver, I enjoy learning new skills so I can better understand the problem, and figure out how to make it better.

Organized Design Process

These steps will vary by project, but this is the formula I use, which can be applied to any project to keep it well organized and on-track.

Data Based Solutions

My portfolio of recent clients – solutions that utilize industry data, best practices and design systems, because a beautiful product is nothing if it doesn’t perform.
