Charles Estes

Inquisitive. Thoughtful. Intuitive.

As a forward-thinking and results-driven Senior User Experience (UX/UI) Designer, my philosophy revolves around designing not just for aesthetics, but for creating meaningful digital products and services that bring tangible value to our everyday lives.

I blend analytical and systems thinking with intuition to spearhead innovative initiatives that embody your company’s vision and enhance customer value. These qualities enable me to transform complex challenges into intuitive solutions that resonate with users and align with business goals. I am eager to bring my unique blend of creativity, strategic thinking, and technical proficiency to new challenges.

My goal is to build long-lasting collaborative partnerships with forward-thinking teams and organizations to create digital experiences that not only meet but exceed user expectations. Whether through mentoring emerging designers, streamlining design processes, or advocating for user-centric design, I am committed to practicing servant leadership in order to make a meaningful impact.

When I am Not Working...

Hiking, Camping, & Cooking

A new adventure is right around the corner. I believe that good times are made, so I try to enjoy as much of this lifetime as I can. Good food, friends, and the serenity of nature make life worth living.

Miniature Painting

Easy to learn, but hard to master. One of my favorite ways to unwind involves a podcast or audiobook and a new miniature to paint. One of these days I’ll actually try to play the game.
