David K.

I'm a UX/UI Editorial Designer with more than 20 years of experience in design, front-end development, project management and product development. I specialize in creating intuitive, user-friendly interfaces that are beautiful, performant, and cohesive. I also moonlight in developing brand marks and visual identities that are simple, memorable, and direct. I get a lot of joy from making things that look great, perform well, and feel perfectly fitted to the broader landscape in which every project eventually sits – visually, technically, and narratively. But *only* insofar as the things I build actually move the ball forward, are to spec, in-budget and on time. Which leads me to how I look at my clients, which, if you’re reading this, is potentially you. I see your time and money as an act of faith and trust in me. And your trust, though earned in time, begins as a gift. I take that gift as seriously as I do anything else about my work. I honor it by keeping deadlines, communicating with clarity, and beating your expectations. Being quite new to Upwork, please take a look at my LinkedIn endorsements (/in/kerns/) to get a better idea of my background and to hear first-hand what it's like to work with me. And reach out with any questions or just to chat. Having been on the hiring end many times, i understand the importance of feeling aligned with someone before you commit to working together. But a chat is not a commitment – it's a chat. So please feel welcome. :)
