It's me, Brad.

It's me, Brad.

It's me, Brad.

For more than 15 years, I've designed products for people. I also help companies lead product design efforts, increase customer satisfaction, manage cross-functional teams, and drive impactful UX solutions.

Throughout my career, I've supported individuals, small agencies, large enterprise orgs, non profits, and everything in between. I've spent time in industries such as fintech, healthcare, e-commerce, marketing, and advertising.

When I'm not designing, I mostly enjoy spending time with my wife and cat. You can find me backpacking or kayaking when I need to recharge my batteries. During soccer season, I'm cheering on my boys in red with St. Louis CITY and the Saint Louligans. I enjoy reading obscure fantasy novels or a bit of philosophy. I love to meet new people and explore unfamiliar places. I'm currently based out of beautiful Cape Girardeau, Missouri.



I'm freelancing for entrepreneurs, start-ups, and orgs who need a variety of design services.
