What people I've worked with have said…
Barbara has a rare ability to create real enchantment in digital products. She has a very attentive eye for evaluating user experiences and translating users' needs and desires into intentional, engaging, and delightful solutions. Working with her also expanded my own perspective as a designer — she constantly brings new possibilities to the table and has a natural curiosity for exploring new technologies and incorporating them into the workflow. What I admire most about Barbs is how she balances innovation with strong ethical thinking. For her, creating meaningful experiences and building responsibly always go hand in hand. I had the pleasure of working with her at Yuna, and it was truly a joy to collaborate with. I can confidently say she is a valuable collaborator on any project!

Barb is very professional, and we appreciated how she organized her design process, from gathering the information, to presenting progress, and collecting feedback. Her designs were beautiful and matching the brand.

Excellent designer to work with. We had to go back and forth with some changes because my content was not 100% ready. But Barbara stayed on course and finished the project perfectly.

Services
I design products, build brand systems, choreograph motion, and prototype the things in between.
Website
Clear and engaging websites that actually do their job, whether it's starting fresh or giving an old one a makeover.
Mobile
Native-feeling iOS and Android experiences. Motion, gesture, and density tuned for the small screen.
Product
Software people return to. Flows that respect attention, interfaces that fade into the work.
Brand Identity
Wordmarks, palettes, type systems, and the gut feeling behind them — built to scale across surfaces.
Together we can
