Hi, I'm Angelene.
I’m a UX Designer and my passion is helping companies connect with their customers in meaningful ways. I create user-focused experiences that result in happier customers, higher sales, and a bigger impact.
Designing websites that are both human and search engine friendly has been a result of my experience working with small businesses. Working in this fast-paced environment has helped me to become well versed in visual design, user experience principles, marketing, and some coding. I love being part of the entire process, working with cross-functional teams to create, evaluate, and re-create final designs.
Somewhat unrelated to work, I enjoy photography, screenprinting, sewing, and pretty much anything crafty. My cats; Mama and Mia are my primary subjects on Instagram and the main culprits for missing craft supplies. When I’m not snapping shots of the kitties, my husband and I check out destinations around the world or enjoy some homebrew.

Testimonials
"I've worked with Angelene since the infancy of my business. Thanks to her, together we were able to organize what needed to be done before opening the doors to create marketing material including my logo and website as well as a professional online presence, Since starting my business over three years ago, whenever I need an update online, a client newsletter sent out or any marketing advice for my business, Angelene has prioritized my needs and gets things done quickly. I highly recommend her because of the wide scope of her talents and skills. She is so well balanced as a creative yet meticulous professional. I have been nothing short of amazed at her capacity and drive to make sure I have been successful in my business."

"Angelene was extremely easy to work with and very responsive. She listened and learned about our product and helped build our new website with our minimal budget and really knows her business. I will continue to work with her on various other graphic art/design needs. She also helped us put together some fabulous marketing materials with a fast turn-around time. I was truly blessed to meet up with her at a Women's Conference breakfast meeting."
