15 years of making the internet prettier,
one pixel at a time.

Tiffany Russell -Lead UX Designer
TR

Creative by trade.
Chaotic by nature.

I'm a Lead UX Designer and Creative Director with 15 years of experience which means I've watched every design trend come, go, and come back again, and somehow came out opinionated and thriving.

I've led design across fintech, media, and consumer brands, turning complicated, high-stakes experiences into something people actually want to use.

UX, UI, illustration, logos, print, design systems. Somewhere along the way I said yes to everything and never really stopped. Turns out that's just my personality now.

Based in Coral Springs, Florida, I work with clients across South Florida — Fort Lauderdale, Miami, Boca Raton, Palm Beach — and remotely with teams anywhere. If you need a designer who handles strategy, pixels, and ships the front-end, you're in the right place.

Skills & Services
(what I actually do all day)

UX Strategy & Leadership

Big picture thinking with obsessive attention to detail. I align teams, map user journeys, and somehow make everyone agree on the same direction.

UI & Visual Design

Pixel-perfect interfaces that look stunning and work beautifully. From wireframe to final comp, I make it look like it was always meant to be.

Design Systems

Building the one component library to rule them all. Scalable, documented systems that make devs happy and keep your brand consistent.

User Research & Testing

Turns out users have strong opinions about your product. I find out what they are before your launch, not after the angry tweets roll in.

Brand & Identity

Logos, color systems, typography, the works. I'll make your brand so cohesive your competitors will be annoyed. That's the goal.

Illustration & Print

Yes, I can actually draw. Custom illustrations, print layouts, editorial design. Dangerously multi-talented and not even sorry about it.
