Website Designer & Marketer
As a designer, I want to send a message that expands creative boundaries and radiates solutions. My solution is never stop designing since it makes the world a more beautiful place. My passion is to work with web and email design
About Me
During my time at Allstate Identity Protection, I served as the Digital Design Manager. In this role, I was responsible for leading the design of various digital assets, including the main website and email campaigns.
As a freelance designer, I had the opportunity to collaborate with MASA Medical Transportation Service. Here, I was tasked with redesigning their website and other digital assets, including their seminars website.
At Colorado Christian University, I held the position of lead web designer and developer. In this role, my responsibilities included developing emails and managing the university’s website.
In addition to my work with these organizations, I have also had the pleasure of collaborating with several clients. These clients include SCORR Marketing, Polylast Flooring, La Quinta Brewing Company, STX Athletic Gear, Inhabited Clothing Company, University of Wyoming Football, and Library Bar of Laramie Wyoming.

My Vision
I believe design is a process
I prototype and iterate
I design and build
Define
I work with you to gather research and do a competitor analysis of what strategy to define you problems and solutions
Design
After defining the problem work to map out the user journey and create wireframes to build the foundation.
Refine
Once the user journey is mapped out with wireframes we move onto the design mock-ups
Build
Then work through mutliple round of revisions and reviews to finalize the design of the web site or digital asset.

Some of My Work
"I have worked with Jake for nearly three years at Colorado Christian University and am continually impressed with how he takes a concept and designs something that exceeds your expectations."
"If you ever get the opportunity to work with Jake, take it. He's a true pro who excels at guiding project teams through the complexities of the design process, bringing his wisdom and experience to bear on thoughtful decision-making at every phase."
"Developers that also have strong concepting and design skills are rare. Jake often took projects that had little direction and ran with them, and always with impressive results."
