Hi, I’m Nia!

A hands-on product and visual designer with a passion for creating thoughtful, detail-oriented, and uplifting experiences.

I have a dual B.A in Digital Media Studies, and Psychology (with a focus on Intrinsic Motivation) from the University of Rochester.

I’m currently based in sunny Jacksonville, FL and have over 6 years of experience designing web and mobile products.

My design process centers around using an iterative approach to arrive at creative solutions that satisfy business objectives and generate positive customer outcomes.

I love collaborating with others to solve complex (and simple) problems at any scale.
