Samantha Olson.
EXPERT DESIGNER
S
As a designer, I have an unquenchable thirst for all things creative. What I build is not only beautiful but smart, too.
I’m a passionate advocate for the user, so everything I create has them in mind. I consider their emotional response to the design and I strive to find key elements that will help them enjoy their experience with the product or online interaction so they’re both delighted and informed.
Above all, I’ve found that positive, quality relationships with internal clients and coworkers elevate a project’s outcome from good to great.
