Email Resume

Hey, I'm Patrick - a UX-led designer who codes. I've spent my career sitting between design and engineering, translating fuzzy product ideas into shipped, branded, accessible interfaces that teams can build on and real users actually understand.

I work end-to-end: research and wireframes in Figma/XD, design systems and component libraries, production frontend in Vue, React, or Svelte, and the brand and copy that ties it all together. I've done it across a range of industries, with a focus on automotive and SaaS. I'm happiest when I'm partnered with a strong engineering team building something from the ground up.

Impact

  • Built a Customer Engagement Platform from zero.
    Partnered directly with the core engineering team to design, brand, and build a CEP for automotive BDCs - information architecture, design system, UI, and frontend implementation.
  • Owned brand and product design across multiple brands since 2011.
    At CloudOne, I've been the design lead behind logos, type and color systems, websites, and marketing for every major product the company has launched.
  • Led a marketing production team of 8.
    Shipped 400+ conquest email ad proofs per month with consistent brand standards, QA, and turnaround SLAs.
