📍 San Diego, CA
Hi! Nice to meet you :)
My name is Jackie and I am a Senior Product Designer living in Southern California who has most recently worked at Getty Images and Envato.
Being a designer is my dream job because it allows me to be creative and intellectually stimulated every day. I have a passion for advocating for user needs and a love affair with sleek, shiny UI.
Recommendations
“Jackie’s knack for Product Design showed right away as she eagerly jumped in to modernize and improve UX for our feature-rich iOS and web applications. As Jackie’s manager at Twenty20, I was impressed with how when given a broad product brief, she consistently used research and testing to deliver designs that balanced commercial and technical constraints, while always being the voice to advocate for users’ needs. Jackie is a transparent, open communicator that always brought a fun-loving energy to our team’s meetings and offsites. As a passionate and talented Product Designer, I strongly recommend Jackie to any company.”
“Jackie is always willing to learn and has a great eye for design. She cares about doing good work and always strives to create a good product and think about the end user. Working with her has been delightful and she is always full of ideas and is open to exploring and pushing boundaries. She works well with others and doesn’t hesitate to tell it like it is - something that is necessary when working in something as nebulous as UX. I would highly recommend Jackie as a UX/UI designer.”
“I had the pleasure of working directly with Jackie and was consistently impressed by her ability to deliver high-quality designs efficiently. She’s a strong advocate for the user experience and is adept at providing constructive feedback with empathy. Her collaborative spirit and effective collaboration make her a valuable asset to any team. I couldn’t recommend her more!”
“It takes a certain type of person to work in start-ups, and Jackie is exactly that person. She came into an unfamiliar industry (automotive), but rapidly assimilated to new ideas and product concepts. Her malleability and willingness to jump from UI work, to UX ideation, to even brand design exploration, made it a pleasure to work with her on such varying tasks. She’ll always express what she thinks is right for any design challenge, and constantly brings a fresh perspective to every assignment. Jackie’s great to work with, and any UI/UX group would be lucky to have her, just like we were.”
