Hi, I’m Natalie

I’m a UX/UI and web designer based just outside Seattle. For 3+ years I’ve designed responsive websites, landing pages, logos and brand kits, and app interfaces for small businesses and eCommerce brands, with usability research for enterprise technology before that. I take projects from user interviews and wireframes to high-fidelity Figma prototypes and launch. Outside client work, I’m a fine artist who paints watercolor illustrations and makes ceramics.

Beyond the screen
I paint watercolors, make ceramics, garden, sing, and share short-form videos on YouTube. I’m curious about how AI is changing design work, I do volunteer design for friends and organizations, and I live with three dogs.
