Hi, I’m Elise. I’m a digital designer & illustrator.
I currently work on the Workshop team @ Upwork as an Associate Design Director.
As a digital specialist, my experience is in leading and contributing to design within e-commerce, creative services, design systems, and product teams.
For over a decade I’ve brought brands to life in digital spaces with the latest web trends and accessibility standards. I work with both local and global brands in senior roles at agencies, start-ups, and in-house settings. I love to discuss the under-the-hood of digital production design to anyone with an interest.
Some global brands I’ve had the privilege to design or illustrate for include Nike, Microsoft, Upwork, Spotify, and AutoDesk.
In my downtime I illustrate & design for non-profit organizations to empower under-served communities, youth, and women.
I believe the most valuable contribution I make as a designer is the impact of the work I put into the world. Some non-profit teams I’ve been lucky enough to work with include Skate Like A Girl, The Vera Project, and Move Redmond.
