Hi — I'mVanessa!

Experienced in branding, reimagining enterprise-level websites, developing design systems, and building Webflow sites.
I've always had a deep appreciation for all art forms – film photography, oil painting, sculpture, architecture, etc. Over the years, I've translated this lovpe of art into designing and developing websites and digital products.

Outside of work,  I enjoy gravel and mountain biking, trying new beer (sometimes after trying to ski), and hanging out with my two Shelties.
