About

A web designer who learned UX in the places where websites actually break.

Illustrated portrait of Josh

I have been hired most often as a web designer, web manager, ecommerce specialist, and front-end-leaning creative. That background is a strength: I understand how websites are actually maintained, where redesigns get messy, and how to make design decisions that survive real constraints.

What I am focused on now

I am shaping my portfolio around website-heavy UX/UI work: ecommerce, service websites, redesigns, content hierarchy, analytics-informed iteration, and responsive systems. My goal is to join teams that need a designer who can think through user experience and also speak comfortably with developers, marketers, and stakeholders.

Where the range comes from

Spider AF sharpened my product and marketing UX work. Band Pro gave me high-ticket ecommerce and Magento constraints. Harman Press turned analytics into site growth. Earlier roles taught me WordPress, custom CMS templates, landing pages, email campaigns, SEO, photography, and the unglamorous details that make a web experience hold together.

Outside the screen

I am based in Japan, keep a small balcony pepper garden, enjoy retro games, and spend plenty of time learning through side projects and family life.
