About me

Hi! I’m Erica, a Product Designer with 5+ years of experience. I bring a keen eye for detail and quality. From aligning on strategy to delivering refined interfaces, I’ll collaborate with you and create designs we can be truly proud of.

I started my journey studying marketing and business, later specializing in UX/UI design at the New York Code + Design Academy. My introduction to UX design began as a student at Year Up, where my program mentors inspired me to pursue a career I was passionate about. I’ve since established myself as a well-rounded design leader specializing in workshop facilitation, aligning cross-functional teams, and translating insights into actionable design strategies. In my five years of experience, I’ve collaborated with major brands across various industries, including e-commerce, financial services, telecommunications, healthcare, and technology.

Experience


Currently, I’m leading the UX strategy of projects within the healthcare and telco industries. Facilitating workshops that drive collaboration and innovation across teams. Contributed design efforts for many e-commerce brands including Forever21 and the redesign of Catbird.
