R.E.D. is a Senior Product Designer working in Retail and has 10+ years of experience.

I’m a designer, mentor, mentee, artist, and musician. I currently work as a senior UX designer at REI on the Cedar design systems team. I believe design changes the world every day— by changing the people who interact with it, changing our society, and changing our environment. I am dedicated to influencing this change to be for the better (through ethical design, inclusive design, and accessibility).

I enjoy working on UX strategy across multiple customer journeys and then executing on the research and UI design (the devil is in the details). I also really enjoy being vulnerable and leveraging the iterative power of agile (I love retros). I also used to be a hybrid designer-developer so I can work easily with product managers and developers to make more streamlined experiences.
