About me

Hello! I’m Kristyn Jenkins, a multidisciplinary designer specialising in UX and Visual Design. I have more than 16 years of industry experience working as a UX/UI Designer, Graphic Designer and Art Director for some of Australia’s leading brands, advertising agencies and publishing houses, including News Corp, Bauer Media and Pacific Magazines. 

My design experience has afforded me many opportunities to collaborate with stakeholders across varied industries. It has been a pleasure to create compelling content and deliver effective communication solutions for clients such as Qantas, Vogue, BIG W, David Jones, FOXTEL and Disney.

Over the course of my career I’ve developed strong negotiation skills, initiative and the ability to thrive within a fast-paced and deadline-driven environment. These skills, combined with my knowledge of user-centered design practices, have cemented my belief in the importance of establishing quality collaborative relationships to create products and services that have meaning; to make a user’s experience truly memorable.
