About me

Hey there! My name is Theresa, a freelance designer based in Lake Tahoe, California. I enjoy creating websites, mobile applications, design systems, brand identities, and everything in–between. I collaborate with startups and digital design agencies (remotely or onsite) as well as large and small businesses throughout the US.

I've had the privilege of working with brands such as Apple, American Express, Blue Shield of California, Cooley, Delta Airlines, Dolby, Gore–Tex, Hitachi, IDEO, Paypal, Sweet Protection, Roam Robotics, Wells Fargo and more either directly or through various creative agencies.

People are at the center of my work. Whether it's understanding problems, engaging stakeholders, or working on teams, I work collaboratively. I have a great combination of high-level process and strategy expertise combined with years of experience using storytelling and visualization to develop beautifully crafted concepts quickly. My experience has afforded me the ability to comfortably jump in during research, production or implementation phases to both support and lead projects. My expertise and design focus resides in (UX) user experience, (UI) user interface design, product design, application design, e-commerce, mobile applications, design systems, brand and identity development. I am fluent in applications and platforms such as Sketch, Figma, InVision, Adobe Suite, Webflow, Shopify, and Squarespace.

In my free time, I thrive in the outdoors and try to be active whenever possible! I love to snowboard, backpack, trail run, and mountain bike. I enjoy random road trips, traveling the world, illustrating in my sketch book, photography and all variations of fine art.

The meaning of Sirris: A palindrome, the peak of wordplay. A term derived from Sirius, the brightest star in the night sky; and Cirrus, the highest and most boundless clouds. In short: a name for infinite yet calculated thinking, all wrapped into one.
