I’m Rachel - a trilingual user and consumer experience designer, design event organizer, 90s Grunge lover, and book club host based out of Montreal.

I work empathically to create seamless experiences to marry business goals and user needs. I approach all projects with curiosity, creativity, and heart🫀.

I grew up in New York, studied in Michigan, and worked and lived in Atlanta, Ga, Hamburg, Germany and now Montreal, Quebec. Immersing myself in various cultures has taught me to listen intently, observe intensely and explore constantly. This curiosity and humility are what drew me to the strategic nature of User Experience Design.

I started working in design agencies in 2009 and have collaborated and worked with clients such as Coca-Cola, Jim Beam, The YMCA and Werther’s Originals. After 15 years of pushing pixels and pulling anchor points within the retail, CPG and branding spaces at skydesign, Peter Schmidt Group and Pahnke, I’m currently focusing all my energies to my favorite part of design – the “why.”
