HI, I’M EMILY

I’m a brand and web designer living in Brooklyn, NY. Throughout my career, I have worn many hats, but in every role, my goal has been to design with inclusivity, accessibility, and empathy in mind to cater to a wide range of people to create meaningful and impactful experiences.

EDUCATION

Parsons School of Design | The New School
BA Industrial & Product Design (currently attending)
Certification User Experience Design

Pratt Institute
Certification in Graphic Design, Web Design, Web Development, UX/UI

I began my educational journey in Graphic Design at Pratt Institute. Here I developed a strong foundation in graphic design, typography, branding, and web design and development principles and techniques.

As I continued along with my studies, I took a Figma class to learn wireframing and prototyping. This class opened my eyes to the world of User Experience design. I expanded my studies at Pratt to include Digital Product Design and Human-Centered Design to delve further into the world of UX.

I learned how to apply UX research through deep analysis and synthesis, how to service design blueprinting, and how to improve my prototyping skills. I fell in love with everything about the research, testing, and process of UX. After completing the classes at Pratt, I wanted to learn more so I enrolled in Parsons and completed certification in UX Design. I loved my experience in the program so much, that I applied to enroll at Parsons full-time. I’m currently attending The New School completing my degree in industrial and product design.

Outside of school, I enjoy making music in Ableton Live, jewelry making, and have been learning stick-and-poke tattooing. I’m an avid nature and animal lover with a passion for music. I enjoy movies, listening to podcasts, and consider myself a lifelong learner who’s a real nerd for process and theory. I’m excited to bring my passion and creative vision to every project I begin!
