Hi, I'm Shari, a UI/UX designer & Art Director in NYC. I create interfaces that speak, brands that resonate.
Recently, I led and designed the entire overhaul of Paramount+ emails to increase retention business, resulting in incredible growth from 3M to 16-20M per deployment and increased open & click-through rates by up to 220%. Redesigned and transitioned framework to be HTML/CSS and API friendly, created a scalable design system with design tokens that empowered both designers and developers to collaborate more efficiently and tackle more complex challenges, streamlines handoff & QA processes, accelerates email production, and increases productivity. The new design also improves user experience and ensures better accessibility through responsive layouts and dark mode support.
