PORTFOLIO

My Recent Work

Currently, I lead design on a higher-ed business office cashiering/student advising application. This product is designed to provide a university with a one-stop shop approach to a student's account; including financial status, holds, and payments. Advisor also has full-featured cashiering capabilities, employs microservices to integrate with multiple data points, offers a student communication module with email templates, and a robust user role management tool.

TESTIMONIAL

It's been great working with Anita as she is very detail-oriented and has a great eye for design. She has created a vision for transforming our campus ecommerce product into a modern, highly functional site. While she takes ownership of design, she has collaborated well with others taking feedback from the experience they have.
