Hi!

An animated waving paw, hi!

I'm Regina

I’m a multidisciplinary designer who likes solving problems and making things, from brands and packaging to digital experiences, game art, and everything in between. I’ve spent my career working across creative disciplines, owning projects from initial concept through final production.

Most recently, my work has focused on branding, consumable packaging, digital and print campaigns, B2B marketing materials, social content, and trade show design, with an emphasis on getting the details right and delivering polished, production-ready work.

My earlier experience spans ecommerce, website design, marketing, photography, animation, illustration, and 2D game art. In game development, I also led illustration workflows, created style guides, trained artists, launched content, and worked with developers to troubleshoot technical issues. That mix of creative and technical experience has made me comfortable jumping into unfamiliar problems, learning quickly, and figuring out how to make things work.

I’m especially interested in the intersection of visual design, technology, and how people interact with products. I’m always learning and experimenting, whether that’s through UX/product design or making things by hand through weaving, ceramics, paper crafts, and other creative disciplines.

I’m based outside Chicago with my two kids and three cats.
A photo of me, Regina!  I'm wearing a hat and glasses and there are flowers drawn around me.
I participated in a 12 week UI design bootcamp through the IxDF in 2022. Since then I have completed 17 certificate courses (totaling 300+ course hours) through their learning platform, scoring in the top 10% in all of those courses and named in the top 1% of all performers on their platform worldwide. The certificates can be seen on my IxDF page as well as my Linked In profile.

I have also taken courses to learn more about programming languages (HTML, CSS, Java, React) for better understanding of the technology involved for projects, implementation of UI components and assets and communicating with developers.

I have completed certificates in the following design topics:‍
• Conducting Usability Testing
• Mobile UX Design

• Accessibility (Including WCAG guidelines)
