Carl Arvidson
Hey there, my name is Carl Arvidson and I am a UX/UI designer based in Cincinnati, OH.
I have always loved creating. My experience creating and curating content with companies like Drift Magazine, Proud Hound Coffee, and Olly allowed me to refine and develop my skills while centering my focus on design.
My educational background is in Business Administration, Marketing, and UX/UI Design. Through this, I have been able to identify and establish how the audience and user are inherently important in effective design. I value user research because it allows me to ensure there is a reason behind each decision. I have learned how to define the problem and utilize my research and testing to generate solutions. Additionally, I have a keen understanding of visual design principles, utilizing color, typography, and grids to create aesthetically pleasing products and communicate information.
I am a collaborative designer and I excel while working and solving problems with others. I currently work for Capital Commerce, a design and development agency that specializes in e-commerce for brick-and-mortar retailers. I aspire to continually learn and develop my skills in order to rival the ever-evolving fields of tech and design.
I love spending time with my wife, my friends, and my community. I find joy in traveling, taking photos, and visiting new coffee shops. Lately, I’ve been into making pizzas for friends and family and trying to find the perfect dough recipe! I am often reading a book or listening to a podcast. I am eager to learn and I am passionate about serving others through design.
