Nice to meet you! My name is Alyssa. I've been in the design industry for thirteen years and senior designer for the past seven at two different design agencies. Over the years, I've been awarded the experience of publishing many magazines, creating packaging, prototypes, campaigns and countless print marketing. I've had clients such a Pfizer, Walgreens & Costco among many others. I currently reside in a beautiful town called Lake Havasu City, Arizona. My fiance' and I work from home with our trusty co-workers, Halle (our black lab) and Bunny (our ragdoll cat). Feel free to reach out to me if you have any general design inquiries, have application issues, tips for increased productivity or even feedback on your current project, I'm here to help.

Make it a great day!

There's much practical advice I've received from my mentors over the years, so I'd like to pay it forward.

In my years at Booking.com, Optimizely, ROMEO (a small GBT dating startup) and Oracle Hospitality I've been through tough product choices, practiced how to have "Strong Opinions, Weakly Held" and generate data to prioritize and prove concepts. I've figured out how I prefer to do customer research and weave what I've learned into stories for the team – with the hope for everyone to feel fired up and connected to customers, and how what we build matters. At Optimizely and Booking.com, I've also learned a fair share about when and how to perform A/B experimentation and personalization in a valid, statistically sound way.

If you have the feeling that I'm the right person to bounce of ideas and help you through struggles, let's chat!
