I'm Paul Parson, designer and digital creative director, and I solve problems with design-thinking and well-crafted design systems.

More about me

I'm pretty good at these things if I do say so myself.
Let me help on your next design project.

Visual Design

My tools of choice are Sketch and Invision for bringing high fidelity prototypes to life.

UX Design

I start with sticky notes and my sketchbook. Once I have a concept, I use Keynote to flesh out the user journey.

HTML/CSS/JS

Being a designer today means knowing how the technology your building for works. I have just the right amount of front end dev chops to be dangerous.

Design Thinking

I start by getting to know the customer and asking the question “how might we…” to frame pain points as design problems.

Design Leadership

Getting a seat at the table means knowing how to speak the language of executives and find positive outcomes for both customers and the business.

Product Management

Taking control of a backlog and managing priorities in order to find product market fit is like second nature to me.

Don't take my word for it
