      Creative Director

      I enjoy telling a brand's story and reflecting the company authentically. I believe good design has a timeless essence that is also accessible for all. My desire to help people through design has brought me deep into branding and UI design, where I enjoy creating accessible, iconic, inspiring experiences for all types of clients.

      As our digital agency has evolved, our focus has shifted from full scale marketing (which we still do from time-to-time) to creating the most accessible, user friendly online service platforms possible. I strongly believe that users should be offered the clearest path to their sought after information, and it should be housed in the most attractive way possible. Accessibility and UX reign supreme, with design aesthetics and "cool touches" still playing a very important role. I don't feel there are many government websites that properly strike the balance of accessibility, usability, and overall attractiveness. One typically gives way to the other two, where at Upanup we strive to deliver all three. Show less
