About Me Image

Hi, I'm Madison!

About Me Hand

My UX journey began in San Francisco circa 2020, where I first discovered my passion for creating seamless and intuitive design. After honing my skills on the West Coast, I’ve since returned to my roots and now reside in the little beach town of Wrightsville Beach, NC.

In my free time, you’ll likely find me surfing, trying out new restaurants, or working on DIY projects. I also manage a short-term rental, which has been an exciting side project!

Currently, I work as a UX Design Consultant at Bridge 2 Partners. I’ve had the opportunity to design across a wide range of industries, including FinTech, e-commerce, education, Web3, and Generative AI.

My goal is to transform every interaction into a meaningful and memorable experience that resonates with users.
