What People Are Saying

  • "Justine was a strong partner on the Agentic AI project. Organized, thoughtful, and consistently responsive. She brought clear structure while operating in ambiguity, which helped the team move from open questions to usable outputs. I saw her collaborate effectively across the quad and keep momentum without sacrificing quality."

  • "Justine was instrumental in the success of the front-end design, providing multiple representations and documentation. She showed great patience with the engineering team which sometimes struggled to implement elements of the design. She showed flexibility and compromise to achieve outcomes. She helped create clarity with constant communication to deliver outcomes. She spoke up on behalf of the customer, encouraged positive team culture, and has a "work as one" mindset.

Who am I?

Senior UX Designer with a background in Computer Science and over eight years of experience creating thoughtful, user-centered digital experiences.

My foundation in technology and design has allowed me to balance strategic thinking with hands-on craft, translating complex ideas into intuitive, visually refined products. I’ve designed for a wide range of industries, from fintech and startups to restaurants and small businesses, leading projects that span brand identity, product design, and full-scale digital ecosystems.

Whether shaping large-scale experiences for 80M+ Chase digital customers or helping local entrepreneurs launch their first online presence, my goal is always the same, to create purposeful, accessible, and enduring design.

Curiosity drives my process. I draw inspiration from everyday interactions, innovative technology, art, and architecture, always looking for new ways to connect design with real human impact.

Outside of work, I am usually found planning my next trip, finding my zen in a yoga class, finishing a DIY project, making pasta from scratch, or on a walk with my fiancé & two rescue dogs.

If you’d like to collaborate or learn more about my work, please reach out, I’d love to connect.

Let’s work together.
