My Journey

I’m Drew Todahl, a UX Designer and Web Developer with a strong foundation in visual design and front-end development. I design and build thoughtful, accessible digital experiences that balance usability, aesthetics, and real-world constraints.

With a background in Art + Technology and hands-on experience across UX research, interface design, and WordPress development, I take projects from early problem framing through polished, launch-ready builds. I’m especially passionate about inclusive design, accessibility, and creating systems that are easy to maintain and grow over time.

I thrive in roles where I can think strategically, design intentionally, and collaborate closely with stakeholders to turn complex problems into clear, usable solutions

Outside of design, I’m usually exploring the outdoors, following the NFL, or refining my craft through new tools and technologies.
