Hi there, I'm Tyler

I design products and find solutions.

I bring over 5 years of expertise in graphic, web, and product design, with a strong focus on user advocation, innovation, and achieving business goals. I am always looking to introduce fresh ideas and champion user-centric approaches across diverse products and industries.

Case Studies

Here’s a couple of noteworthy projects that I’ve had the privilege of being a part of.

Senior UI/UX Designer | B2C & B2B | Retail & Healthcare

Empowering Access to Preventative Healthcare at Healthyr

Healthcare not only needs to have an easier barrier to entry, but also should be focusing on prevention. Healthyr and I aim to reduce these flaws in the current system in this case study.

UI/UX & Graphic Designer | B2C | B2B | Automotive

Demystifying Car
Repair at CarAdvise

There’s a lot of work that goes into vehicle repair. CarAdvise and I aim to make that work clear and concise 
for the user, while also allowing for easy scheduling and discounts in this case study.

DESIGN TASK | WEB & UX DESIGN | NON-PROFIT

Redefining a Donation Journey at Tip It Foward

The donation and sign up experiences at Tip It Forward needed some rethinking. Please read along as I break down some core journeys of their site and redesign them with new, innovative approaches.

DESIGN TASK | WEB APP | EDUTECH

Providing Tools for
Teachers and Staff

Torsh’s platform assists teachers by giving them tools to organize and communicate with one another in a district-based portal. This case study helps streamline some of the organization.

SELF-ASSIGNED PROJECT | MOBILE APP

Cooking Up Solutions
To Satisfy Cravings

A self-assigned project, Foodie is my take on a recipe app. This case study takes into consideration the current leaders in the recipe category, and adds more tools for at-home chefs.

About Me

i'm dedicated, opinionated, caffeinated,
and a little monosaturated

Hello! My name’s Tyler Phillips

I’m a UI/UX and Product Designer with 5+ years of experience. Starting as a graphic design freelancer, I quickly began to adore the aspects of visual design that allowed me to cater towards my audience and truly build an experience around them. That passion continued to grow, evolving into my next step as a UI/UX Designer.

Fastfoward to the present, and I now have startup experience at multiple companies, where I’ve learned many skills and gained a suitcase full of design hats to fill any gaps when necessary. I also possess a never-ending drive to advocate for users, while simultaneously achieving business goals in a quick and consistent manner.

Hey, I’m Tyler

I like video games, tabletop RPGs, all things Marvel, and long walks on the beach. Just kidding, I don’t like sand.  It’s coarse and rough and irritating and it gets everywhere.

You can catch me serving a tennis ball directly into the net, watching the St. Louis Blues miss the playoffs for the 3rd time in a row, chasing my dog around the house as he steals my socks, or maybe even putting on a really bad British accent for my D&D game.
