About
My name is Dariss. I am experienced team member, design thinker with presentation and cross-platform design chops. Ideally, collaborating with multidisciplinary groups to create design solutions is my jam. I prefer collaborative environments over cubicle ones.
Like any professional designer, my arsenal continues to evolve and adapt with the times, with a primary focus on user experience design.
Currently on the market seeking full-time employment to work within a dynamic team and office. -
