Hi, I’m Brina!

(Pronounced Brie-Na, like the cheese 🧀)

I’m a Senior Product Designer with 9+ years of experience across Product, UX, Visual Design, and marketing for both enterprise and agencies.

My skills include user research, wireframing, prototyping, and high fidelity designs and I have experience working in finance, travel, and hospitality.

My design origin story started in twelfth grade when I carefully arranged my senior year schedule around living in the arts classroom and the computer lab so I could fully immerse myself in all day creative sprints. I would spend the morning painting or glazing ceramics and then switch in the afternoon to learning web design and video editing. This naturally transitioned to attending NSCAD University’s foundation year and then going on to earn a Bachelor of Design.

My villain origin story started when the creative team all thought it would be fun to write down our predictions for how the last season of Game of Thrones would end…and I won. I have been cursed with storytelling pattern recognition ever since.

I'm proud to have worked on projects that have achieved significant results, such as designing digital banking services to reduce customer wait times (Awarded Project of the Year 2023). In addition I have designed hospitality and marketing websites that have won Adrian Awards, and created a poster design for the Nova Scotia Advisory Council on the Status of Women that won an honorarium.

When I'm not working, I like to read, play video games, and themed games of mafia and Blood on the Clocktower with friends.
