Hi, I’m Christine

I’m a product designer and team leader based in the midwest, fresh from California, with experience delivering end-to-end UX/UI design solutions for digital platforms. Let’s join forces and make the internet more beautiful and user friendly.

Why you need a skilled UX Designer

A poor user experience can limit adoption and retention—critical metrics for any digital product. I combine technical expertise, leadership, and cross-functional collaboration to identify friction points and uncover opportunities. From there, I design intuitive, user-centered experiences that drive engagement, reduce churn, and support scalable long-term growth.

 

How I can help you

I bring a well-rounded background and experience across a range of design methodologies that support a thoughtful, end-to-end approach. Rather than applying a one-size-fits-all solution, I adapt my process to fit the unique needs of each project, helping create experiences that are both effective and user-focused.
