Welcome to my slice of the internet pie! I'm a web designer with industry experience dating back to 2007. My career began as a freelance designer for AMG Media, a local web services agency, where I worked with established brands. Over the next several years, I collaborated with Vancouver-based web start-ups while proudly earning my Applied Web Development certification with distinction from BCIT.
In 2011, I joined Hop Studios in Vancouver as a full-time web designer. There, I not only honed my design skills but also gained experience in project management, client relations, and web development. In 2016, I left Hop Studios to focus on personal development and independent projects.
In 2019, I completed the Communication Design program at Emily Carr University, further expanding my creative and technical skill set.
As of 2025, I've been actively refreshing my design skills and exploring how artificial intelligence is reshaping the creative landscape. Iām embracing new tools and workflows that incorporate AI, from generative design platforms to smarter prototyping and automation. Rather than seeing AI as a replacement, I approach it as a powerful collaborator, one that can enhance efficiency and open up new creative possibilities. I remain optimistic about the future, firmly believing that the unique perspective, empathy, and intuition of human designers will always be essential to meaningful and impactful design.
Outside of design work, I've taken up photography as a hobby and maintain a gallery at www.vulpe.ca and instagram @adaywithtimothy. I draw inspiration from design legends like Saul Bass and Susan Kare, whose work continues to influence my creative approach.
