Philippe Sakaian

Passionate about design and technology, I love collaborating on teams and with clients to build innovative digital experiences. With an interdisciplinary background in multimedia design and art history, I specialize in creative, strategic designs, from concept prototype to finished product.
 


Over my 12+ years experience in user experience design, I have managed projects across a range of industries in both Paris and New York—at digital agencies, in-house, tech companies, startups, nonprofit organizations, galleries, and artist studios. Throughout my career I have been lucky to work with stellar people on user experience strategy, research and design across platforms: mobile, tablet, desktop, and more. Highlights of my portfolio include print design, iPhone and iPad apps, responsive websites, eCommerce and marketing websites, and environmental signage.

As part of a quickly evolving industry, I constantly look forward to new ways of communicating visually impactful designs. My colleagues consider me to be dedicated, warm, very hard-working, and conscientious. Please don't hesitate to follow or contact me if you would like to say hello!
