Experience Design Lead at Handshakes by DC Frontiers
Hello! I'm Elena and I'm passionate about creating delightful moments at work and play through thoughtful design.
Design to me, is about the human experience. Design is problem-solving and not mere aesthetic enhancement. Design is the active anticipation of human needs and solutioning for them.
Design takes the form of many things – processes, policies, communication, physical environments, and beyond. As long as a brand can be perceived through our 5 senses, there is opportunity for brand interaction (internal and external) that should not be left to chance.
If these points resonate with you, reach out to me if you need help with: wanting a sounding board or listening ear a portfolio review needing a cheerleader
