Hello 👋 I'm Alyson. I’m a designer based in NYC. Over the past 7 years, I've designed user-centered experiences for media companies, focusing on creating interfaces that feel intuitive and human. In my free time, you can find me making zines, taking photos, enjoying live music, or strolling around cemeteries.
