SR. DESIGNER AND MANAGER
REMOTE / MAY 2014 - FEBRUARY 2015
PCCC (Progressive Change Campaign Committee) is a very small organization so I had many responsibilities as the sole Senior Designer. In addition to UI design work, I was also the manager to a full-time designer and a design fellow. This was a new role for me but I embraced it fully and learned a lot in my experience. I also worked on wireframes & UI designs for their suite of campaign tools. I helped decide the functionality for several of these complex web applications, including a website builder, an application that creates customizable polls, and a newsletter creator. To ensure consistency in these and future applications I created a pattern library of assets and design styles which I shared with other designers and developers. I also oversaw the branding and style guide of the organization, as well as communication between the design team and the rest of the organization. In order to improve design processes on the production end, I created a repository of design assets, templates, wireframes and more to be used among the design team. I also completely transformed the way in which work is handed off to the design team, so that there is much less back-and-forth, confusion, and miscommunication.
