A bit about me

I’m Nina – an end-to-end product designer with over 10 years of combined UX, graphic design, and marketing experience.

After developing my business and research skills in the marketing and advertising industries, I decided I wanted to be more involved in the creative process and went back to school to get my master’s in graphic design. In my subsequent role as the sole designer for an art museum, I focused on the overall visitor experience in our physical and digital spaces; this sparked my interest and eventual transition into UX, along with a passion for work that empowers people and drives positive change.

I’m systems-oriented by nature and my design practice is inherently iterative, collaborative, and based on a strong foundation of research. My interest and experience in research, project management, writing, and design also means that I embrace involvement in every major step of a project’s lifecycle from ideation through implementation.

I’m currently designing experiences for both scholars and the general public that enhance access to the Getty Museum's vast collections and research efforts.

In my free time

When I'm not working, you'll find me antiquing, researching my next trip, or hiking with my dog and partner. I also dabble in film photography and oil painting, and I'm usually trying out at least one new hobby at any given time.
