    Hello Upwork! I'm a UX/UI Designer based in San Diego, CA. I’m passionate about creating user-friendly Apps, websites, and systems for businesses. I take a top-down UX approach when building custom Mobile & Web apps (adhering to good UX/UI Design processes & principles). The initial love for design all started over 20 years ago when I build a website for my dad’s business. Little did I know at the time it would be my lifelong passion. Through my years, I’ve worked on with many different clients, businesses, and projects to help them meet their business or product goals. Each new day being a new opportunity to create something bigger & better! If you’re passionate about pixel-perfect design, and clean & contemporary design… I’m your guy. I've spent several years in the Agency setting, and am prefer the autonomy working with new startup ideas and creating new Product Designs. Right now, I’m available for up to 20-25 hours of work per week. I can work hand-and-hand with Project Stakeholders and Project Managers to deliver creatives in a timely fashion, with attention to detail. I feel the key to a successful & effective design project starts with understanding the audience, and building empathy with the user. Who are they (demographics)? What are their problems, issues, and pain points? By identifying this, it will help establish your message. This message should align with your Goals & Missions as an individual, company, or business. I also use heuristics to improve conversion rates. This is all part of the process, and I’m here to help bring it to life! As a designer, I bring these elements into your design & layout, and help build a connection with your audience from the beginning! Having a foundation, and doing the research ahead of time is critical. Availability? (My Hours)... I’m west-coast based, but have a lot of clients through the US. If you have a project or idea you’re looking to create, we can come up with something special together… I love partnering with businesses & individuals who are trying to take it to the next level. So.. what types of projects am I interested in? I’m glad you asked :) 1). Web Design — working with clients to design high-caliber custom web designs that fit your brand, feel, and identity. Allowing your business to build trust and less frustration to the end-user. Presentation is everything, and so is smart design thinking. 1). Product Design — working with startups to offer consulting for Mobile & Desktop Web Apps. This includes building mock-ups, wireframes, and high-fidelity designs for Web & Mobile applications. The whole UX process. 3). SaaS-based UX/UI Interface Design — making clean, and user-friendly interfaces for any type of Web Applications (think of mint.com, Zoho CRM, Invoicing software, or task management CRMs). I can share some high-fidelity designs I’ve worked on so you can get a feel for the quality of work. All of these I’m willing to share with you the design files, or schedule a video call to show you (some other UX guys will copy from templates…. You can never be 100% trustworthy in this day in age it seems). If I sent you a proposal, then it’s my way of saying “I can make a difference for you, your life, and what you’re up to.” What are you waiting for? Let’s create amazing…. together! -Payton J.

    As a Writer and UX Designer, I push conceptual boundaries that address user needs and transform them into unmatched experiences that are relevant and intuitive. I breathe purpose into products and articles that delight people from all walks of life. For writing: I will be your content writer for one-off blogs or for your brand as a whole. 
 Being that I am a UX Researcher and Designer, I am well-versed in researching topics and synthesizing data before conjuring up a cohesive writing piece. I write on everything; Music, Food and Beverage, Beauty and Fashion, Dating and Relationships, Design, Social Media, and Fitness and Travel, and beyond. 
 Give me a topic and I will create a well-ordered and articulate draft for you to look over before a revision is made. I charge per article but will gladly work out a deal if you decide you'd like to work together on future projects. For design: I will be your UX and/or UI designer for one-off projects or for your brand as a whole. My goal is to maintain a harmonious balance of business priorities while bringing the voice of the user to the fore. I meticulously interpret data and user behavior analytics to provide tasteful suggestions for improvements in both product design and internal processes. 
 Looking forward to connecting and creating magic to help you and contribute to the success of your business!
