Senior Experience Designer — Digital & Interiors
ABOUT DENISEDenise is a Baltimore-based Senior UX/UI Designer and interior designer with nearly two decades of experience. She holds a Master UX certification from Nielsen Norman Group, one of the highest credentials in the field; and founded Denise Does Design to bring that same rigor to websites, corporate teams, and physical spaces alike.
PHILOSOPHYEvery project begins with a question: what does this person actually need? Not what trends say. Not what looks good on a mood board. Real needs, real solutions. The function comes first — always — and the design is the cherry on top.
WHAT I CAN DO FOR YOUAt the core of it all, I'm a problem solver. I genuinely love figuring out what a user needs and finding the most elegant path to give it to them. The design you see at the end? That's the cherry on top.
-
Research-led, user-centered website design for brands, portfolios, and small businesses. Beautiful and built to convert.
-
Strategic guidance for teams and organizations looking to embed UX thinking at every level of their product or process.
-
Workshops and coaching to build user-centered design capabilities in your team.
-
Spaces designed around you — not trends, not catalogs, not someone else's idea of beautiful. I bring a user experience designer's eye to every room: function first, personality always, and a finish that's unmistakably yours.

“Function is the architecture. Beauty is the finishing touch.”
