ABOUT ME
Hi! I'm Kristen. I'm a product designer with a heavy focus on the user. I currently live in Florida with my better half, our two dogs, two cats, & three chickens. When I am not designing, I'm likely renovating my bungalow or trying my hand at a new craft.

I was a yoga teacher for over ten years before transitioning to UX Design. During that time I learned how to be an empathetic listener which helps me today when working with clients. I will always advocate for the users while balancing the needs of the business & I enjoy the challenge of finding solutions that work for everyone.
