MY NAME IS TARYN.
WELCOME TO MY RIVETING ABOUT SECTION.
What I do &
what i'm looking for
I design thoughtful digital and print experiences for brands that value craft, personality, and smart systems. My background has shaped how I think about audiences, clear navigation, and design that works in the real world. I’m not here to overcomplicate things. I’m here to create clear, engaging digital experiences that support both people and business goals. I love being part of a team, contributing my perspective, and learning from others. That sense of creative community is something I’m actively seeking in my next role.
real-world experience
I did not come up through a traditional design pipeline. I spent my early years in New York hospitality after studying culinary arts, working everywhere from the line to the floor to the front door. It’s where I learned how people move through spaces, what they notice, what they ignore, and what makes something worth coming back to. Turns out that skill set transfers really well to design.​
hospitality to digiTAL DESIGNS
I decided to formally pivot into design through a course focused on digital experiences. When I committed to that shift, I approached it the same way I approach any complex problem: with curiosity, structure, and consistency. Design quickly became the place where my practical experience and creative interests came together.
Where structure meets feeling
I’ve always been passionate about art, layout, music, and the way good ideas are shaped and presented. Design, for me, lives at the intersection of structure and feeling. I care just as much about clarity and usability as I do about tone, rhythm, and restraint. The work should look good, obviously, but more importantly, it should make sense and feel intentional.
