Full Stack Designer & Creator
#UIUX, creator, photographer 📷, lifelong learner, #denverbroncos | #seattleseahawks 🏈, occasionally hunt edible fungus, gambler, IRL & digital artist 🎨, cook 🌮, YouTuber, & most importantly... dad 😃.
Currently working as Lead UI/UX for Apple in Seattle, Washington.
I am a full stack designer based out of Seattle, WA. Jumping into the Wayback Machine... out of high school... I started my career as a fine artist and abstract acrylic painter. After completing my Associates Degree, I moved to Denver to study Graphic/Web Design at the Art Institute of Colorado focusing on the basics of design, color theory, layout, typography, and more. This built the foundation for what was to become my true passion, user experience and product design.
Fast forward to present day, I now have decades of hands-on real world experience in user experience, product design, user research, usability testing, and design systems. I have worked with a wide range of companies from Fortune 500 to start-ups. I've also worked across a wide range of industries: apparel, health care, banking, energy markets, retail, technology, and others.
I'm not as active as I used to be on YouTube, but I started a channel awhile back to begin sharing with others my experience around design and UX. YouTube.com/ThomasWicker. I definitely have plans to continue this moving forward. I have had so much positive feedback from others in the community ❤️
Aside from all the work stuff... I am a father of two beautiful and healthy girls that keep me on my toes and my life well balanced and meaningful. I love spending every free moment that I can with them.
I enjoy cooking and experimenting with different cuisines. I enjoy a good Texas Hold'em cash game in Vegas, cheering on the Broncos or Seahawks in full face paint, and I love to travel when time permits. Seeing the world gives you perspective and helps inspire creativity on a different level.
I also love to learn, learn, and learn some more! Life is a short ride... and my motto is to always be learning.
