Hi, I'm Trish
With over 15 years of experience, I blend strategic vision with innovative design to create meaningful experiences that connect with people and drive business growth.
My Story
The Journey Begins
My creative journey started with a simple belief: design has the power to solve real problems and create meaningful connections. What began as a fascination with visual arts and storytelling evolved into a passion for strategic design that drives business results.
Building Expertise
Over 15 years, I've had the privilege of working across diverse industries—from healthcare and technology to events and consumer products. Each project has taught me valuable lessons about adaptability, collaboration, and the importance of user-centered design.
Looking Forward
Today, I'm excited about the intersection of AI and design, exploring how emerging technologies can enhance creativity while maintaining the human touch that makes design truly impactful. I'm currently open to remote or hybrid leadership roles where I can help teams create something beautiful and functional together.

AI Integration Philosophy
AI for Creative Acceleration
- Rapid ideation and concept exploration during initial brainstorming
- Generating content variations for A/B testing and optimization
- Streamlining repetitive tasks to focus more time on strategy and mentorship
- Research acceleration and competitive analysis
- Prompt engineering for efficient workflow enhancement
Human-Centered Safeguards
- All strategic decisions and creative direction remain human-driven
- Client work includes clear disclosure of AI involvement when applicable
- Brand strategy and positioning rely exclusively on human insight and empathy
- User research and persona development remain entirely human-centered
- Final creative approval always involves human judgment and experience
Transparent Collaboration
I believe in open communication about the role of AI in my process, ensuring clients and collaborators understand how technology is used to enhance, not replace, human creativity and expertise.
My Design Philosophy
"Great design goes beyond looking pretty; it solves real problems and tells a compelling story. I keep things simple, accessible, and genuinely human."
