In the Stands
This is a personal/passion project that my wife and I started it in 2019, and we’ve been casually working on it ever since. I have handled all of the creative and production work. I created a site in Webflow, handle the social (badly, if I’m honest), and created a shopify site where we sell some merch.
PREVIOUS FULL-TIME JOB
Qualcomm

For 6 years, I was a Staff UX Designer at Qualcomm working on internal projects that helped improve the employee experience.

I utilized a broad skillset on every project, including working directly with stakeholders, assisting with research, creating and iterating on high-quality design, and collaborating with developers and engineers to make sure the implementation went smoothly.

I mainly focused on visual design, which included wireframing, high-fidelity mock-ups, prototyping, and presenting my work. I helped out with research, but that is an area I’m still improving. The only project I'm showing is a concept I did for the Qualcomm Gaming Studio. This wasn't really the type of work I did when I was there, but I had a real fun time working on it.

Because of my time at Qualcomm, I've got a big gap in my project timeline. Since I'm unable to show basically all my work at Qualcomm, I'm highlighting a few of my favorite projects.
