Multi-disciplinary Designer
ABOUT ME
Hello, I’m Derrick. I do UX & UI design, branding, and marketing.
My work is a constant balancing act. Part left brain thinking – analytical and methodical. Part right brain – dynamic and creative. And I believe the ability to integrate these two types of thinking is the key to turning a simple idea into an extraordinary experience.
Check out my resumé below for more about me. Let's get in touch.
