I’m Marquez. I’ve been designing digital products for about 7 years, with a background in graphic design and rhetoric/professional writing. That foundation forces me to think critically about not only how products solve for an audience but also how they show up at the presentation layer. I pair that with industry experience across both growth-stage and large enterprise environments— touching e-commerce, logistics, SaaS and fintech— solving for a wide breadth of use cases across B2C, B2B and internal tooling.

As a result, my process is pretty fluid but usually includes some combination of research and discovery, problem framing, journey mapping, workshopping ideas with stakeholders, and close collaboration with engineers not only during implementation but throughout the process. I bring an end-to-end design lens to the product lifecycle, verifying not only that we're solving the right problem but also that our solution is easy to use and technically feasible.

The common thread running through my career has been finding joy in imagining a better way of doing, and for seeing abstract ideas turn into tangible things that can be felt, seen and experienced. And helping users accomplish goals, no matter how small.
