Why, hello there. I’m Johanna.

I am a designer, speaker, and educator in DC, specializing in UX/UI design. I create sites and digital tools that are kind, inclusive, and help people navigate complex processes.

What I do

Design | UX/UI

I've been designing in DC for over a decade, and have been lucky to collaborate with some great teams—as a consultant, in-house, and at an agency managing other designers. I focus on information architecture and design systems, and often shape my role to the design needs of the project. For me, how you build something (and who you include in the process) deserves just as much care and intention as the product itself. I work hard to foster supportive teams that build empowering tools together.

Teach | General Assembly & American University

I've taught at General Assembly and American University. My courses cover design fundamentals, web design best practices, tech ethics, and strategies for thinking through design problems.
