Hi, I'm Sarah Cao.
I'm based in San Francisco and graduated from Cal Poly SLO with a B.S. in Graphic Communication, concentrating in UX/UI, one of the few programs in the country that actually pairs design with the technical and production side of how things get made.
I take a problem and chip away at it until it turns into something beautiful and functional, that's true whether it's a blank canvas or an app trying to solve something as specific as PMDD. Right now, most of my work means lending strong artistic direction to other people's visions, bringing structure and craft to projects that matter to me.
