I’m Ariel;
Designer, Organizer and Thinker.
I experience the world as an endless opportunity for learning, discovery, and truth-seeking (the definition of Adobe’s Creative Types, The Thinker). This quest of curiosity leaves me asking many questions and provides me with the understanding of the importance of everyone’s unique perspectives.
This insight drives my approach to design and project management—which, in hand—leads me to spend more time with the small nuance details to bring clarity and thoughtfulness. It’s in these small details that can ignite bigger things.
Over the past decade, I’ve had the pleasure of working across roles that span social media content development, design and art direction, physical product strategy, and project management. This experience has taught me to problem-solve quickly and view all design as an act of object creation. I begin every project by asking, “how will one spend time with what I create and how can I make that experience meaningful?”
