Hi! I am a brand and product designer excited about helping impact-driven startups launch and grow.
About me
As a design generalist with 10 years of experience, I've had the privilege of working with agencies, in-house teams, and as a freelancer. These diverse experiences have shaped my multifaceted skill set and strategic-thinking. The heart and joy of my work is the ability to transform a vision into something tangible. Whether it’s creative direction, brand development, product, digital or graphic design, I approach each project with meticulous attention to detail and execution—crafting thoughtful and beautiful experiences that leave a lasting impression.
Currently, I'm a principal product designer at WeightWatchers, where I'm dually focused on developing design systems and personalizing weight health journeys for members. My work here seamlessly builds on my previous tenure at Brave Care, where I contributed to building a national brand, designed products to make healthcare more accessible, and mentored new designers on navigating their creative careers.
You can find me in my adopted city of Austin, TX alongside my partner Treasure and fur children Evie 🐶 and YT (Yours Truly) 🐱. During my spare time, you can find me embarking on outdoor adventures, exploring the culinary front, trying out new fitness classes, or getting lost in a good book. If you’d like to say hello or chat about a project, drop me a line at hello@cndsgn.com.

Kind words from colleagues
“Cindy is a complete designer in the truest sense. She’s not only an expert at her craft, but she grasps the larger business problem behind every design project. I can trust Cindy to deliver tasteful work that balances thoughtful design systems with true illustrative expression. No need for repetitious explanation or baby-stepped deliverables. Cindy just gets it.”

“Cindy’s one of those rare designers that blends talent, knowledge, and kindness together in a way that appears effortless. It’s only when she presents her work that you realize how much hard work and deep critical thinking went into delivering the final product. She’s a designer that consistently puts everything she has into every project.”
