Headshot of Stephanie Westnedge

I’m a designer and creative director transitioning to the user experience realm. Though I love beautiful things, I am more passionate about creating easy-to-use intuitive applications that help people get stuff done. I am very practiced at balancing the needs of the customer, the user, the business and the employees and good at collaborating at all levels.

For me, there is nothing more beautiful than making something easy to do.
