About Me
Hi, I’m Nicole!
I value empathizing with users and amplifying their voices in order to design solutions that will make their day just that little bit better.
I am currently a UI Designer, utilizing my formal education in User Experience Design, Communications, and Visual Design to help users get their hands on the right product and to put it to use with as little hair-pulling as possible.
I would like to implement the methods I’ve learned and the skills I’ve honed to solve users’ problems as a UX Strategist.
Professional Experience
UI Designer
Woodstream Corporation
I currently design digital assets for numerous brands in the Woodstream family, including Victor and Terro. Most days I will be building out a high-fidelity web page prototype, designing and coding an eye-catching email, or creating a set of instructive info-graphics.
I find my bliss in learning new design tools or techniques and by pouring over every piece of user feedback I can get my hands on. I always have a suggestion for how UX methods and best practices can be implemented to ensure our users are having a good time on our sites.

Graphic Designer & Jr. Brand Strategist
Janome America
I designed digital and print solutions for Janome America’s marketing department. We had a small and scrappy team, so I did a little bit of everything: photography, advertisements, POS materials, social media graphics, brochures, website maintenance, promotional emails, and more.
Graphic Design Intern
Grove City College
I worked with the Marketing and Communications department of Grove City College to create materials that educated two vastly different audiences, while reflecting the college's core values.
