Hello, my name is

Graye Smith

I'm a Product and User Experience Designer,

specializing in creative solutions to product problems.

I call this connecting the dots between people and products.

I've used my dot-connecting skills to create:

Connecting the Dots That Matter the Most

The dots I connect could be inventive concepts, product features, user needs, critical business goals, or outstanding experiences.

With a striking ability for finding creative solutions, I find creative ways to bridge the gaps that arise when connections fall short. Each dot has its own unique path, and no two connections are the same. My strength lies in adapting, drawing from a broad skill set, and embracing new approaches to build the connections others might miss.
