Hi – I'm Zach, an avid designer, developer, and passionate maker. I recently graduated from the Sam Fox School of Design & Visual Arts at Washington University in St. Louis where I studied Design, Human-Computer Interaction, and Computer Science.
This background allows me to provide a multidisciplinary approach to problem solving. My expertise includes user testing and research, information hierarchy, and visual design. My technical skill set is paired with soft skills such as communication, adaptability, and ingenuity. I thrive on a team or everyone is motivated to experiment with new ideas.
Experience includes:
JPMorgan Chase, UX Design Associate (current)
Avanade, UX Designer
Avanade, UX Design Intern
Invictus Capital, Product Design Intern
Design for America, Member
3D Print Westchester, Co-Founder
Creative Engineering, Engineering & Design Intern
Most recently, I was an Experience Designer at Avanade, an IT consulting company. I worked to help redesign an internal customer service associate interface for a global investment management firm through the creation of wireframes and application of visual design, along with conducting live user testing to ensure the viability and desirability of the product.
In my free time I love to work with my hands. I enjoy woodworking and 3D modeling and printing, and I'm currently experimenting with blacksmithing. On nice days, you can find me hiking, rock climbing, or playing ultimate frisbee.
