So a little about me...
I’m Valerie Brisendine, a digital designer/artist who works across UI/UX, graphic design, and production art.
People often ask how these three disciplines fit together. To me, they’re simply different lenses for the same goal: solving problems visually.
​
-
UI/UX teaches empathy for the user’s digital journey.
-
Graphic design teaches the power of narrative and brand emotion.
-
Production artistry teaches respect for technical specs, tolerances, and the realities of execution.
Working across both digital screens and physical production floors changes how I approach design. I stop asking only “How does this look?” and start asking “How does this scale? How does this render? How does this survive the real world?”
That cross-disciplinary perspective is what I bring to every project-thoughtful, practical, and grounded in both craft and constraint.

I have ventured into the coding world while also studying UI/UX Design. Adding these skill sets to my tool belt has been a rewarding challenge, and I am persistently seeking new avenues for self-growth. I know many programs in Adobe and now I’ve added a few more in the coding and UX category.
Collaboration is at the heart of my process, and I enjoy working closely with cross-functional teams to bring ideas to life. By fostering open communication and embracing diverse perspectives, I believe we can create truly transformative solutions that make a difference in people's lives.
Outside of design, you can find me painting or drawing, fueling my creativity and inspiration. I'm always seeking new challenges and opportunities to grow both personally and professionally, and I'm excited about the possibility of collaborating on exciting projects that push the boundaries of design excellence.
