About Sophie Golomb

I bring right brain skills in art and design to left brain interests in research and technology. My formal education in fine arts, anthropology, and environmental education has driven me to lend my creative skills to social justice causes. After over 10 years working for nonprofits and in higher education, I followed my passion for user-centered ideation, problem-solving, and visual design.What I like most about design is how it can alter the way you feel about the products you use and the experiences you participate in. Whether I’m designing graphics and print materials, user interfaces for websites and mobile applications, or educational programs for learners of all ages — the through-line is a deep desire to think creatively, tell stories through a visual medium, and bring ideas to fruition.In my free time, I am an avid crafter — I sew, knit, paint, cook and ferment. I love museums, spending time outdoors, and exploring new places abroad and at home in New York City.
