Who I Am
As an experienced design leader, my passion lies in the realms of UX and product design and research, fueling data-driven growth with customer empathy, and cultivating safe and inclusive environments for team members to flourish. I am particularly focused on integrating ethical AI usage and application into our analysis while anchoring my work within design principles. I understand and appreciate the pivotal role of research in shaping design choices, creating impactful user experiences, and informing business decisions.
Regarding research, I advocate for a mixed-methods approach that combines qualitative and quantitative research to deliver prompt and meaningful results to diverse stakeholders, ensuring our designs are well-informed by user insights and aligned with their needs. Throughout the product design cycle, I will ensure that Lean UX practices are upheld and executed upon.
Additionally, in my leadership style, I prioritize inclusivity and diversity, creating an environment where everyone feels valued, respected, and empowered to contribute their unique perspectives. Through actively promoting open communication, encouraging constructive feedback, and championing equal opportunities, I cultivate an atmosphere where individuals can thrive, leading to enhanced creativity, collaboration, and innovation.
Ultimately, by prioritizing UX research, customer empathy, ethical AI usage, and fostering a safe and inclusive environment, I can ensure the delivery of user-centered solutions that truly resonate with our target audience and drive business success.
Q&A
What inspires me?
Connection inspires me. I am truly inspired by others and their unique identities. I believe that when we take the time to empathize with people who are different from ourselves we grow and move forward.
What would I bring to your team?
An individual who is dedicated to collaboration, empathy, research, and communication. I would also bring an abundance of grit and dependability to the team. I am dedicated to developing designs and pushing research, there isn’t a design challenge I can’t overcome. Delivering a solution for someone or something that matters is one of the most fulfilling parts of working in this field.
Most memorable project?
One of my favorite projects has been developing and executing a monetization hypothesis of mine. I identified a possible solution to a company problem and designed a scalable solution. I spearheaded a team of designers and researchers to create a variety of sites that worked together to bring in approximately $50,000 per quarter. I managed a team of 4 designers and 5 content writers, and together we worked to test and develop these digital solutions. Even more rewarding than the monetary value of this project was the opportunity to lead a team and cultivate an environment where everyone was able to fully apply their skill sets and witness a positive outcome of their work.
Biggest design influence
My grandma, mother and grandpa are all artists and I remember watching them draw, paint and create beautiful artwork. Their designs captured a scene or an emotion and translated into a design that individuals from all walks of life could understand and empathize with. I knew at a young age that I wanted to find my own lane in that creative space. To this day I still look to their art and processes for inspiration.

Kim is a talented designer with both broad and deep experience in UX, graphic design, and interaction design. And on top of that, Kim delivers quality results.

She always strives to provide the best innovative solutions. Even though she handles multiple projects, yet she keeps absolute track of the quality & timeliness of each one of them.

Kim is a great example of an effective and helpful manager. I have enjoyed working under her for a year and a half. Thanks to her supervision, I have learned everything I know about graphic design, digital media marketing, and website design. She has a powerful combination of expert knowledge and natural leadership abilities. She promoted both the personal and professional growth in each member of our team. Any employee would be lucky to work under the skillful supervision of Kim Mosberger!
Kim was wonderful to work with. She participated in many presentation test sessions and provided valuable feedback, not only to the graphics, but to what she took away from the content. I was set on a stick-figure aesthetic, and Kim showed me different styles of stick figures to get an idea of what I liked. In some cases, I had a more specific idea of what I wanted and provided crude sketches. From these, Kim kept true to the content and created very professional images.
Kim is an amazingly talented person and a delight to work with! She’s incredibly helpful and creative and I am always impressed by her. She’s a powerhouse; she has very well-developed UI and graphic design skills and she also has the grit and drive to back them up. Not to mention her sense of humor and her heart make any project with her an absolute joy. Can’t say enough good things about Kim!!
Kim is fantastically passionate person to work with!

I also appreciate her mercifully kind sense of humor. I am sure where ever she lands, they will benefit great from what she adds to the work, and company culture.
I have collaborated with Kim as a third party affiliate on many different multimedia projects over the last few years. She excels behind the camera or as your design program manager. She has a sixth sense for multiple facets of media and will add value to any project that she is associated with.
