Experience
Stytch / November 2020 – Present
Founding Brand Designer
As the founding Brand Designer at Stytch, I played a key role in creating the company’s first brand identity and have led the current rebrand to ensure a cohesive vision across all touchpoints. I collaborate cross-functionally with marketing, product, and engineering teams to deliver design solutions that align with company goals and user needs. My experience spans a wide range of marketing assets, including website design, paid ads, product launches, and branded swag, and I’ve contributed to two successful OOH campaigns. Highly organized and detail-oriented, I independently manage projects from concept to execution, while mentoring junior designers to help them grow and deliver high-quality work.
