I'm Aubrey Schmidt, a design strategist + Webflow developer in Kansas City. I enjoy collaborating with other enthusiastic and positive people to find innovative solutions to challenging problems across print, screen, and space.
What I do / who I do it with / & why
I have a thing for creating and conceptualizing seamless experiences that empower and excite users. I have 13 years of experience across various creative areas from product design, website design, development, strategy, facilitation, workshops, photography, and branding.
I aim to work for companies that encourage playfulness, foster collaboration, and nurture radical thinking.
I do what I do for one reason: ’to enjoy’ (because life’s too short). The two things I enjoy most are bringing the things I dream to life and making other people happy. I spend my days doing one in pursuit of the other.
