Profile — Trey Burghardt

Hi there! I’m Trey — pixel pusher by day, city dweller by night.

Everything we design in this world, will in turn design us back

Present

With over four years of experience as a product designer, I focus on implementing user-centered, data-driven, & business-oriented UX & UI design.

I have been involved in various product delivery stages, from 0-to-1 projects in seed-stage startups to scaling features for SaaS companies across multiple platforms.

My best work happens when I work with smart people to solve meaningful problems. The tech industry fulfills my need for uncertainty, collaboration, & learning.

Past

From 2016 to 2020, I contributed to high-growth tech startups (Guidebook & G2) managing over 500+ small-medium businesses to enterprise software companies.

From 2020 to 2021, I leaped into UX Design through a boot camp, freelance work, and an internship.

My mission has always been to make “good” technology successful. Guidebook’s mission was to empower events to go mobile, & G2’s mission was to help companies find the right tools to be successful.

I’m continuing this mission today with my UX & UI work at TextUs–leading creatively and delivering results.
