Brad Marcum

I'm a former developer who fell in love with UX, which means I design things that developers can actually build, and I speak both languages fluently.

I’ve handled the complex challenges of in-house design and the fast-paced demands of a consultancy. The common thread is healthcare, which is where I did most of my work and learned that empathy is something that sets me apart.

I love taking something good and making it great.

I have a well-rounded design skillset (research, UX, UI, AI) and tend to wear many hats.

While I am very good at pushing pixels, I focus more on outcomes.

OUT-PERFORMING AN AGENCY

As an in-house designer, I once out-designed a premium UX agency and saved our company over $100K in fees (6 weeks into a 12 week engagement).

The agency’s first round of mockups were subpar, yet they presented them as examples of strong UX. I produced better designs to show our team that we needed to raise the bar on our expectations for the user experience.

Shortly after, I became the design lead and took over the project, while the agency was informed that they were no longer needed.
