I’m Caylee: a product designer who is passionate about finding and creating fluid, meaningful and innovative solutions for the toughest of design problems. I’ve collaborated with engineers, stakeholders, marketing specialists, developers, architects, graphic designers, client operations managers and contractors in my career as a workplace Interior Designer turned Product Designer.
The best way to approach a project is to walk in the user's shoes. I take the time to understand and analyze before I even think about stepping into a design.
Finding not only a solution, but the best solution is a tough task. I take it head on - If we don't explore all options, how do we know the one we pick is best?
Once you've done thorough research, making design decisions comes easily and beautifully. I can work in several different design softwares, but figma is *chef's kiss*.
I have been in and around the design industry for about eight years now, the first three in the interior design field, designing workplaces.
I've always had empathy for the employees of the large corporate headquarters I was designing for and still, I never felt like we did enough to fully understand their needs and solve the problems that they were facing in their space. Unfortunately, research just didn’t seem like much of a priority in interior design and architecture.
When I discovered UX five years ago, I was craving that advocacy for users and decided to take the leap and make the career shift to product design.
you can usually find me behind my camera, a kitchenaid mixer or a pair of knitting needles. I am a dog mom, green bay packer fan, and cheese curd addict.
