Hi! It’s me, Chloe (a human with a clever URL, not a subscription service).
In preschool, I would spend my time doodling cats, rainbows, and hearts in the margins or blank spaces of my homework – I kinda still do that.
Today, I’m still an artist, but in a different way. I’m a collaborative designer that specializes in product design strategy with a passion for accessibility and human center design. Most recently I’ve developed a passion for building up the design culture for my internal team and my client teams.
I’ve kept busy in my spare time moonlighting as an instructor at the local community college in the web design program for 8 years. I’ve felt immense pride and honor passing on knowledge to the next generation of product designers. I’ve stepped back from teaching but seek opportunities to lead and mentor.
I also manage my own Etsy store and Instagram account in hopes to gain a cat cult following. If you like cats, florals, and sassy humor, give my pseudonym a follow @Cleo.Good.Day on Instagram.
Other hobbies and interests include macrame yarn art, DIY home renovations, maximalist interior design, craft nights with friends, murder mystery parties, yoga, and cat videos of course.

My Alter Ego
Cleo Good Day
Bare with me here, I don’t have a split personality. The name “Cleo” is a poor joke amongst myself. Cleo Good Day is a maximalist brand where I get a little weirder than normal. I continue to embrace color and cat-related themes with art, journals, and more.
