Hi, I'm Brett, a Senior UX Designer. Currently simplifying complexity for Sherwin Williams.
Hello i’m Brett Combs,
a UX designer with a background in philosophy print and interactive
design.
I create research-based insights and achieve positive results that put people, their needs, and experiential barriers first, because individuals do not differentiate how they feel about products from their experiences with them.
