Hello! I’m Tamara, an independent designer with over 6 years experience in the areas of brand identity, digital and print design, using the Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign and XD, Figma and Canva applications as they are needed. Here’s what I can help you with: BRAND IDENTITY Brands can be unique, living things if they’re allowed to be. My approach with brand building is to delve into the brand’s raison d’etre and allow it the freedom to fully express its character and deliver on its promise, using strategic design to create the conditions for a wholesome brand experience. Branding services include: Brand Strategy: We'll align your brand’s ethos and core beliefs (who you are), your brand’s essence— your personality, voice and tone (how you express who you are), and brand messaging (how you talk about who you are) with your target audience to determine content keywords important for messaging. Your differentiating factor as well as a competitive analysis of fellow brands in your industry will also be worked on to determine your brand's positioning and the best ways you can connect with your audience in a manner that’s uniquely yours. Creative Direction: Your creative direction determines the design direction for your visual identity, photography and text layout, constructing visual stories that evoke emotion and communicate a compelling experience to customers. Brand Identity Design: This includes a full logo suite, colour palette and a typography system. Brand guidelines, and brand collaterals such as illustrations, icons, brand patterns, Social Media Kit, etc, with copy (by yours truly) that helps to reiterate your position in the market. GRAPHIC DESIGN Sometimes, it is the case that you need a graphic designer to create digital or print designs based on your brand aesthetics and guidelines. I can help with: Digital Media: Social media post graphics, Instagram highlight covers, Facebook, Instagram and Pinterest ad creatives, Google ad banners, website assets, hero banner images, Klaviyo signup forms and email designs and copy. Print Media: Posters, flyers, menus, tags and labels, cards and inserts, catalogues and lookbook designs. Communication is important to me and I'd really appreciate it if you could take the time to give feedback in a timely manner, so let's keep in touch!

AWARD-WINNING DESIGNER I am an award-winning graphic designer, illustrator, report WIZARD and lettering artist with a colorful, playful, and sophisticated style. My work is original and follows the traditional methods of sketching, research, ideation, and creation. My design is also built upon strong fundamentals learned from my BFA in Graphic design and my 15+ years of job experience. WHY HIRE ME? Because you are guaranteed thoughtful artwork that supports your vision and goals. Design isn't just supposed to "look good," it should communicate a message to your clients when you aren't there to personally speak about your work. It should make a personal connection that your clients will remember, and that is what makes you stand out from the crowd. MY EXPERIENCE I've worked with notable clients including the City of Portland's Bureau of Transportation, Envision Healthcare, Kneaders, Intermountain Healthcare, Wildworks (Animal Jam), Barrick Gold, Salk Lake City HR, Utah Transit Authority (UTA), Parent's Empowered, BIKETOWN: Portland's Bikeshare, Salt Lake County Library System and many others. I've had the experience of working in several job environments including an ad agency, several government bureaus, a gaming company, university, and a start-up company. With this experience I have learned how to work with different clients, teams, project scopes and how to create a design that is meaningful and well-suited to each deliverable. MY PASSION My passion for design crosses multiple art disciplines in print and digital media. Whether it's an annual report, infographic, presentation, digital banner, or hand-lettered project, I am open-minded and willing to think outside the box and explore big ideas for the best outcomes. MY GUARANTEE I bring my best to every project and will deliver above and beyond your expectations. I will make sure you are happy with the end result. TESTIMONIAL "Sarah is an exceptionally talented designer and illustrator. To boot, her calligraphy work is some of the most beautiful you will ever see. I had the pleasure of working with Sarah at R&R Partners SLC in Salt Lake City. Sarah's breadth of specialties/skill set is rare. She is extremely intuitive and is able to understand what her clients really want to see in their creative even before they do. She is wonderful with clients and communicates clearly at all stages of art execution with them. She is also a hardcore team player who does whatever needs to be done to meet deadlines and truly cares about the end result of any creative is a part of. Sarah is absolutely wonderful to work with and any organization would be lucky to have her on their team." -Kari (Ross) Taylor, Account Supervisor at MRM // McCann AWARDS American Advertising Federation (AAF) - ADDY Awards, Silver Addy | DUI Staycation Outdoor, 2017 American Advertising Federation (AAF) - ADDY Awards, Silver Addy | Days of '47 Ribs & Rodeo Logo, 2016 American Advertising Federation (AAF) - ADDY Awards, Gold Addy | DUI Jail Cell Bathroom Wrap, 2016 American Advertising Federation (AAF) - ADDY Awards, Silver Addy | DUI St. Patrick's Day Experiential, 2016 American Advertising Federation (AAF) - ADDY Awards, Silver Addy | Days of 47' Rodeo Campaign, 2016 Salt Lake County, Communication Team Project Leadership, 2011 National Extension Association of Family & Consumer Sciences, National Newsletter Award, 2009 National Association of County Agricultural Agents, Regional Newsletter Communication Award, 2007

Hey, what's up? Ladilon here, and thanks for stopping by. I firmly believe that your design is the ambassador of your brand, and it reflects and represents you. It helps you visualize your market. My top skills include illustration, logo design, format/layout (brochures, business cards, tarpaulins, poster, signage, press releases, print mediums, etc.), infographics, packaging, newsletters, and web design, website asset, banners, landing page, and eBook. I am highly proficient in the Adobe Creative Cloud, especially Illustrator and Photoshop. I love Figma as well. I am offering you these Graphic Design Services: ● Advertising Design ● Brand Identity Design ● Clothing & Merchandise Design ● Cover Art Design ● Editorial Design ● Large Format Design ● Marketing Collaterals ● Packaging Design ● Print Design ● Website Design My interests take the form of all things drawing: such as anime characters, cartoons, abstract, hand lettering, and illustration. I have a wide breadth of skills that allow me to conquer a large spectrum of graphic design. My more than ten years of experience in logo design and branding for new business startups and large established companies is my edge. I entered the Web Development field as a Web Designer and transitioned into more of a Front End Web Developer I was primarily responsible for customizing WordPress themes for client websites, taking PSD layouts and Sketch files to production. I designed a fair amount of websites and also worked with our graphic designers to translate their work to the Frontend of our landing page application. I made sure to cover responsive and cross-browser design and implementation in my QA process. I am a team player. These are some of my best practices when developing a website functionality: I – Website Speed / Load Times • Website site speed is a measure of how quickly your pages for a visitor coming to the website. • The more functions you ask the website to perform (play videos, pop-ups, multiple images, files, keep navigation open, etc.) can affect the website's speed. • Google offers a free developer tool that scans the website and provides insights for improving speeds for the developers. II – Website Responsiveness over Multiple Device screen sizes. Developing a responsive website that works on mobile and smaller screens is pretty much SOP these days. Still, it is also a good idea for the developers to review the responsiveness on multiple devices and screens. III – Checking the website functionality on multiple browsers. Sometimes, the look and functionality of websites are not consistent over various browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Explorer). Sometimes when a browser updates, it goes out of sync with certain websites. This rarely happens, but when it does cause a website to break, it can be an annoyance. IV– Be Careful Not to Hack Child Themes • Child themes are specific areas of the website, and developers will often hack into a child theme to add functionality to the website. For example, you want music to play along with the image slider, but this functionality is not built into the theme itself, so the developer must do some custom coding. The problem is that it is not a best practice to hack a theme, and when the theme updates from time to time, it will break the functionality until that custom code is re-installed. And if the original developer is not around at the time of the update, then a new developer must scramble to figure out what the custom coding was. • If any coding is done, the developers should make notes, and these notes be accessible for the owners for future reference. V – ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) / 508 Compliance • Certain websites are required to conform to ADA standards for individuals with vision issues who use tools like readers to browse the internet. • It is not only descriptive alt tags and media descriptions but also the website structure itself. Specific color combinations, Flash features, etc., make it difficult for the readers. • It is better to use best practices while building the website because there is a cottage industry of litigators that scour the web and threaten legal action for noncompliance. IV – Human Check and Limit Personal Contact information • Make sure the website forms have some time off “Human Check” to reduce the Spam on the website. • It is also a good idea to limit personal contact information available on public sections of websites. You don’t want crawlers to get your personal contact information which could lead to large amounts of spam being sent to your accounts. I am excited every day to wake up and do what I love! Creativity and design are my passion in life. I look forward to working with you! I am at your service.

More than a decade in shameless self-promotion has honed my skills for exactly what you need. A film student in college I specialized at the time in screenwriting and video editing / sound design, quickly becoming the first choice editor for every “auteur filmmaker” who didn’t have the time to piece together her masterpiece. Editing for pizza, essentially, I wound up working as the head graphic/web designer for the university department of recreations. From small projects promoting intramurals to creating all media for the ACIS Flag Football National Championships it was my first real step into the fields of graphic design and branding. Instead of seeking professional work in the field after graduation I instead decided to fulfill a much less professional field known as stand-up comedy for the next decade. Stand-up comedy, a ruthless world of DIY self-promotion on a shoestring budget. Over the years I made use of the skills I entertained in college and put them to the test creating hundreds of gig posters, facebook announcements, registry-lapsed websites, and quickly abandoned podcasts. Every unique project and reinvention pushing me further than I was interested in and in less time than I probably needed. I’ve written sketch shows, punched up scripts, edited feature length films you’ve never heard of, and designed touring merch, cd and dvd inserts, fake chick tracts, newspaper stips, longterm partnership proposals for brand sponsors, business cards, and more postcard sized promotion handouts than I care to remember. My toolbox includes: Illustrator, Photoshop, Premiere, InDesign, Final Draft, Wordpress, Content Writing, and Soup-to-Nuts brand construction. Now that I’m off the road I have decided to put this experience to good use and to seek out content creators and small businesses who could benefit from my experience. More than just quick one offs though, I would ultimately like to build sustainable relationships with these clients as we grow together. I work quick. I’m not afraid to take risks. And above all else I want to make you happy with the work that I do. You deserve it.

A designer is not what I am, it is who I am. I have an eye for detail that allows me to catch things most people would miss in a million years. I love building authentic, long-term relationships with my clients based on good communication, trust, respect, and the occasional joke. When I’m not busy with a design project, you can find me taking care of an unhealthy number of plants or hiking one of the 5,089 mountains my beautiful country has to offer.

How to Hire Top UX Designers

In today's competitive digital landscape, a well-crafted user experience (UX) can transform visitors into loyal customers. Whether streamlining a checkout process or creating engaging app tutorials, a skilled UX designer can drive this transformation.

A UX designer focuses on crafting intuitive, enjoyable digital products that meet user needs and align with business goals. Hiring the right UX designer requires a strategic approach to ensure they have the right skills and experience to enhance your digital products and contribute to your long-term objectives.

The growing demand for UX designers

The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics projects that demand for web and digital interface designers will grow by 16% by 2032. With increasingly complex digital products like smartphones, tablets, and wearables, end users expect seamless experiences across all platforms.

A well-designed interface can differentiate you from competitors, increase sales, and improve customer loyalty. Investing in UX design talent is crucial for sustainable growth.

What does a UX designer do?

A UX designer creates digital products like websites and mobile applications using a user-centric approach. They collaborate with teams to conduct research, create user personas, analyze competitors, and define target audiences.

Key skills of top-notch UX designers

Here’s a list of some of the technical and soft skills you should look for when shortlisting candidates for the position:

Technical skills

Adept in Sketch. The software offers access to interactive buttons, typography, and templates to develop concept designs and working prototypes.
Understanding of Figma. This software enables UX designers to create realistic prototypes with templates and interactive design components in shared libraries.
Proficient with InVision. Created by designers, InVision offers users drag-and-drop features to create project mockups and unique designs.
Wireframing ability. Using digital platforms or physical paper, UX designers create wireframes, which are outlines or sketches of the structure of a digital product.
Knowledge of prototyping. UX designers use software tools to develop working prototypes that mimic the functionality and interaction of the final product.
Ability to create a responsive design. This concept refers to how well a web page or app adapts to different browsers, screen sizes, and devices.

Soft skills

Empathy. UX designers must empathize with the user’s journey, pain points, and frustrations when interacting with digital products.
Communication. Communicating well enables UX designers to understand client needs, convey design concepts to key team members, and grasp feedback.
Collaboration. By collaborating with developers, product managers, and stakeholders, UX designers can implement user-centric solutions into each stage of product development.
Attention to detail. UX designers must pay attention to small details, including fonts, color palettes, and design consistency, to improve the quality of digital products and enhance user experience.

Identifying the right UX designer for your business

Start by understanding your company's mission, values, and long-term goals. Review the candidate's experience, portfolio, and testimonials to confirm their creativity and expertise.

Tips for Evaluating Candidates:

Review Portfolios: Assess design quality, creativity, and process documentation
Conduct Interviews: Evaluate their problem-solving abilities and design strategies
Ask Challenges Faced: Learn how they overcame past project challenges

Cost of hiring a UX designer

The top three factors that contribute to UX design project costs are:

The scope and complexity of the design project: An experienced UX designer will propose a quote based on the amount of work that needs to be completed—and the more there is, the more time and effort they’ll have to account for. More pages, elements, and screens increase project complexity.
The number of storyboards and personas to account for: More personas mean more research, testing, and analysis. The idea behind creating user personas is to uncover and zero in on your users’ motivations, goals, and preferences. This is how a UX pro gets to know your customers forward and backwards, and it’s central to them doing their job well.
The amount of user testing required: Iterative testing and refinement increase effort and costs. The more testing you do—at the beginning and as you refine your UI—the more time and effort will be required, not just for your UI designer but anyone else on the team.
The designer’s experience and rate: More experienced designers charge higher rates

Average UX Designer Rates:

*Project Type*	*Average Hourly Rate*
*UX Design (General)*	*$25-$75*
*Wireframing*	*$30-$60*
*User Research*	*$25-$65*
*Storyboards/Personas*	*$30-$70*

Freelance UX designers typically charge $25 to $39 per hour, depending on expertise and scope. A full-time UX designer’s average salary is $108,820.

Writing an effective UX design job description

A job description for a UX designer should outline the required education, knowledge, design skills, and experience needed to perform the role’s responsibilities.

Below are tips on how to craft an effective job description:

Create an informative title. The title of your job listing should be concise and include the position you’re hiring for and any relevant tasks associated with the designer role. Example: “Looking for an experienced UX/UI designer for web and mobile app development for a startup.”
List the duties of the role. Outline day-to-day responsibilities and collaboration tasks.
Add required qualifications. This includes education, experience, and certifications related to UX design.
Describe scope. Define the deliverables required and expected timeline.
Discuss budget. State the salary range or hourly rate.

Differentiate Between UX and UI Designers:

UI Designers: Focus on visual aspects, like color schemes and button styles.
UX Designers: Deliver a positive user experience beyond the interface, including content placement, performance, and troubleshooting.

Interviewing UX designers

To assess a person’s eligibility for the role and compatibility with company culture, ask open-ended, thought-provoking questions that encourage them to demonstrate their technical and soft skills.

Consider some key interview questions to help you identify the best UX designer for your company:

Can you share an experience where you needed to adjust your design strategy to accommodate changing client requirements?
What software tools and methodologies do you rely on to collect feedback on design prototypes?
Could you elaborate on a design project where you encountered unexpected technical issues? How did you manage to tackle those challenges?
What design tools do you use to create wireframes and prototypes?
Can you share an example of a project where you had to design for multiple device types or screen sizes?

Why hire a UX designer?

A skilled UX designer enhances customer satisfaction, brand loyalty, and user engagement, resulting in higher conversion rates. They also analyze customer data and behaviors to inform product development decisions, aligning business goals with user needs.

FAQs

How do I measure the success of a UX designer?

Evaluate their achievements, ability to solve challenges, and adherence to deadlines. Gather user feedback through surveys or testing to assess how well their solutions meet user needs.

What should I look for in a UX designer’s portfolio?

When assessing a UX designer’s portfolio, review the following aspects:

Unique design style. Look for designs that convey creativity and innovative skills without compromising functionality.
High-quality work. Check that all their work displays high-quality images, plus cohesive visuals and color schemes.
Specialized skills. Review projects created with specific software tools like Sketch to evaluate the designer’s technical expertise.
Process documentation. Assess information about the designer’s workflow processes, such as research techniques, reasons for design decisions, and design iterations. These aspects offer insight into their approach to design work.
A diverse range of projects. Consider the various industries, clients, and user demographics they have worked with. This experience can give you a sense of their ability to customize solutions that cater to specific audiences.

How do I assess a UX designer’s skills during the interview?

The UX designer should discuss their digital design approach, collaborative skills, and strengths during the interview. Listen for confident answers and examples from past experiences to showcase their talents.

You could also present a real-world scenario to observe how the UX designer would navigate that situation. For example, ask them to describe their strategy to redesign the checkout process of an e-commerce app. Case study questions like these can demonstrate their creativity and problem-solving abilities.

How can I determine if a UX designer is a good fit for my project or team?

Consider your organization’s culture and values when assessing potential UX designers. For instance, if your company values teamwork, you may want to ask about their past experiences working collaboratively.

On the other hand, if innovation is a top priority for your design team, ask questions about their ability to adapt to changing requirements and develop creative design solutions.
