Cara Pirrello

[care-a] [pur-ello]

I'm a UX Designer based in Cincinnati, Ohio with a degree in Interior Architecture and a minor in Fine Arts from Ohio University. I have 7+ years of direct experience building large-scale web applications, websites, and responsive products for non-profits, startsups, and international corporations.

I believe design serves as common language we can all understand, and it’s the role of a designer to help translate the relationship between space, function and human behavior. I feel at ease with the hands-on responsibility of guiding implementation, interactivity, and information architecture.

Whether its improving my craft or myself, I aim for growth and welcome a good challenge with open arms.

When I am not working, you can find me:
