About Me

Hi! I am Faith and live in San Antonio, Texas. I have always needed to be creative - even as a child I always craved ways to express my creativity and share it with others. I am a natural problem solver so when I found a career that involved my love of design and creativity with problem solving, I was sold!

I am a communication design graduate from Texas State University and spent the past 15+ years working in a graphic design professional environment as well as freelance contract work. My career made a slow transition into product design and I have been a product designer for nearly five years. I absolutely love the product design process, working through problems, and creating experiences people will love!

Other loves besides designing is Crossfit (snatches and handstand walks are my favorite!), teaching piano to my amazing students, and traveling as much as I possibly can. I am also married with two adorable female cats, Vision and Quill. Avenger kitties!

how my teams describe me

I am a detail-driven, user-centered product designer with a deep curiosity for understanding people and problems. I bring a strategic mindset, blending visual clarity with functional design to create thoughtful, high-impact solutions. Known for my collaborative approach, I ask the right questions, thrive in cross-functional teams, and consistently deliver high-quality work under pressure. I care deeply about crafting experiences that are both intuitive and inclusive - I am always learning and always pushing for better.
