about me

My name is Nicolas Emerson.

In my day to day, I work as Director of Technical Program and Product Management at a med tech company where my focus is on building and improving internal products. I work with a team of engineers, product managers, and other professionals, bringing my design instincts and natural affinity for product development to every conversation.

The majority of my design time is spent as a freelance designer on client projects, but I have been fortunate to have started a successful Etsy shop for graphic tees, as well. I love bringing products to life and feeling the difference it makes in peoples’ eyes.

Design is less a job as a passion to me. It influences the way I interact with the world, from absentmindedly lining up geometric shapes in my field of vision while on the phone to building a color scheme in my kitchen. There is an order to the designed world that I find naturally satisfying.

I have a proud background in engineering and hands-on wood working. It has given me the foundation to bring together many different passions.
