Vanessa White

Designer & Creative Strategist Elevating Brands Through UX, Web, & Visual Storytelling

I design intuitive, high-impact digital experiences that blend strategy, creativity, and user-centered thinking. With a strong foundation in visual storytelling and problem-solving, I craft seamless, engaging solutions that drive business growth, enhance user interactions, and create meaningful connections between brands and their audiences. Whether refining complex workflows or designing from the ground up, my approach ensures scalability, clarity, and impact.

What Drives my UX Approach

I taught elementary art to 500+ kids weekly for nearly six years, honing my ability to generate solutions quickly, identify opportunities to pivot, and craft blueprints for various scenarios.

My creative background in visual art allows me to process information differently, envision the end solution, and uniquely visualize outcomes.

I take pride in building relationships and asking the right questions that lead to successful product outcomes. Clients often express gratitude for my ability to clearly understand their vision and execute it beyond expectations.

I enjoy collaborating with small businesses, helping them establish a strong and engaging digital presence, while also bringing my experience working with large enterprises to develop scalable, user-centered solutions. This balance allows me to adapt to different project needs, whether it’s crafting an intimate brand identity or refining complex enterprise workflows.
