Hi! I’m Rachel, a UX/UI designer.

After spending over 10 years honing my skills as a web and graphic designer, I stumbled upon the world of UX/UI Design and instantly fell in love. I enjoy working through complex problems and figuring out how to design the simplest, cleanest solution that users will enjoy, because I know firsthand how frustrating it can be to feel confused, hit up against obstacles, or waste time while trying to get stuff done.

I help teams develop step-by-step processes for getting things done, and stay on top of projects to make sure we meet all deadlines.

I’m happiest when I’m immersed in Figma, refining designs to be pixel-perfect, or speaking 1-on-1 to users to get a deep understanding of their thought processes and experiences.

Together, let’s create something amazing.

Here's why you should work with me:

“Rachel is not only a pleasure to work with as a person, but also a valuable teammate.

Aside from her creative chops, Rachel possesses the unique ability to read between the lines of an ask and interpret what is truly needed – not just what is requested. 

She brings joy, empathy and a keen eye to everything she tackles.

Craig Goldstein

Former CMO, Orthodox Union

“Rachel is a valued creative who I was lucky enough to partner with for nearly two years. She becomes a subject matter expert in anything she undertakes and understands how to effectively curate educational and promotional content for distinct audiences.

Rachel has an unbelievably strong work effort, is flexible, kind and always strives to deliver the best product possible.

Shari Weisenberg

Chief Marketing Officer, AMIT

“Rachel is one of the most talented designers I have worked with. Most designers need me to lay out exactly what I am looking for, and then they execute it – Rachel can work with very little and create something that’s exactly what I would have wanted.

She’s communicative, responsible, and talented beyond measure!

Tiffany Yankovich

AVP, Donor Experience & Engagement

“I have worked with Rachel for nearly a decade. She is much more than a designer. Rachel is an excellent project manager, a brilliant writer, and has a deep grasp of Jewish knowledge.

Working with her is one of the great joys and privileges of my professional life—I cannot more highly recommend working with her.
