Hi there! My name is Tricia but a lot of people call me Trish. I am passionate about helping people and creating or improving products in a meaningful way through design. I specialize in UI/UX and Product Design and have been exploring the design realm for over a decade.
I recently moved to Austin from San Francisco, CA in 2018. Why? Why not! I grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area and it was time for a change. Austin has a whole lot to offer in terms of natural beauty, warm weather, and great culture, so I'm thrilled to be here.
I have a unique story in that I crossed over from a music background into design. I got my Bachelor’s degree from Humboldt State University in Music, specifically Percussion Performance. I used to lead bands, gig locally, go on tours, produce albums, and teach lessons and community classes. Eventually, I started doing a lot of the artwork and marketing for the bands I was in, so it was very natural to segue into design professionally. I still play music in my spare time but being a professional designer is much better for paying the bills, and I love what I do!
I’m very excited to work in Austin in UI/UX and am currently working with the Experience Design Group at Dell as an Interactive Visual Designer aka UX Designer. I'm open to new opportunities that might be the right fit.
Lastly, here's some fun facts about me: I enjoy playing drums and producing rap/hip-hop, watching baseball, collecting plants, making people laugh, and being a crazy cat person hanging out with Mousie, Kingston, Xeno, Xander, and Vincent + any foster kittens we currently have, not to mention our two dogs Maya (Husky) and Django (Great Dane pup)...I know I have a lot of animals, but I wouldn't have it any other way!
I'm available for freelance projects or consultations.
Feel free to contact me about anything at design@triciabaxter.com
