My name is Shannon, and I’m a multidisciplinary Senior Graphic and Web Designer with a strong foundation in graphic design, web design, UX/UI, branding, and digital marketing. My career has been shaped by a lifelong passion for combining creativity and technology. What began as a personal interest ultimately evolved into a career creating meaningful visual experiences across digital, web, and print media.
In my free time, I love playing video games, seeing my favorite DJ’s play live and spending time with my Indian Ringneck Parrot, Sonic.
With more than 15 years of professional experience, I’ve developed creative solutions for a diverse range of clients and industries. My work has included projects for major brands, companies, and organizations such as JPMorgan Chase, National Grid, PayPal, Shift4, Canon, Entenmann’s, Thomas’ Breads, Little Bites, and many others.
I enjoy the challenge of taking something complicated and making it feel simple, while still keeping it fun and engaging. Whether I’m transforming dense financial information into an approachable annual report, creating a digital experience for a major consumer brand, developing a marketing campaign, or designing a user interface, I focus on finding the balance between strong visual storytelling, usability, accessibility, and purpose.
I have strong software proficiency in Figma, Adobe Creative Suite, Sketch, and front-end technologies including HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. I love collaborating with developers, marketers, writers, project managers, and clients to turn an idea into something that works in the real world.
At the heart of my work is curiosity. I like figuring things out, asking the right questions, experimenting with ideas, and finding unexpected ways to communicate a message. I believe good design should not simply look good, it should have a reason for being there, make information easier to understand, and create a better experience for the person viewing it.
