In the world of web and mobile, there are only a few that have the ability to work between the right and left-brain. As the daughter of a fine artist and electrical engineer, Genevieve has just the right mix of quirkiness, creativity, insight and problem solving skills necessary to excel in communicating abstract, complex concepts, translating them into effective visual metaphors. In other words, she’s a kick ass designer!
Whether UX or UI, her approach to design focuses on defining and empathizing with
“Design is not just what it looks like and feels like.
Design is how it works.”

the user, first and foremost. This means considering details about the user, such as lifestyle, habits and music preferences; and processing them through color psychology, form and space in order to create the most ideal environment for the user to meet the client’s hopes and expectations.
Outside of work, Genevieve sings, writes, plays guitar, hikes, and shoots photography.
