Hi! I'm Brett Anderson.
Over a decade of experience building & designing digital experiences.
Based in Orange County, CA. Previously at Kroger, designing the design system for the Associate Experience, transforming how employees interact with internal tools. Before that, I helped build a website platform at Side, a real estate startup, and led the design team at KWALL, a web agency where I shaped digital experiences for diverse clients. I graduated from Laguna College of Art + Design (LCAD). I have a passion for creating unique designs that stand apart from off-the-shelf options, focusing on systems that scale while maintaining their human touch.

I enjoy creating free assets and games utilizing Figma and its collaborative features.
