With a background in tech, e-commerce and luxury visual design I strive to create beautiful, useful, and engaging digital experiences that allow users to achieve their goals. I collaborate closely with the business, UX, design, and development teams throughout each phase of the product from conception to release.

I enjoy teaching user interface design, user experience design, and email marketing at the renowned Fashion Institute of Technology. Professional growth and giving back to our community is of great importance to me. In order to achieve these goals I serve as Mentorship Program Coordinator for the New York City User Experience Professionals Association, Content Editor for UX Magazine, and write about the topics of entrepreneurship and design for the Huffington Post. I was also recently appointed Host of the NYC Freelancers Union Spark Event.

I worked with Iva to redesign blissworld.com. She was an excellent team player and created wonderful work. I recommend Iva to any company looking to partner with a talented web designer.
