HELLO!
My name is Grant Ertl, and I’m a UX/UI designer, prototyper, illustrator, and award-winning motion graphic designer based in Saint Paul, MN. I have a diverse background in visual storytelling, front-end development, creative writing, and specialty coffee roasting. Currently, I do UX/UI and visual design at Creed Interactive.
I’m dedicated to understanding user needs and crafting experiences that are as elegant as they are intuitive. My process is rooted in thorough user research, empathy, and extensive testing to ensure every design hits the mark. Collaboration fuels my creativity, and I believe the best solutions emerge from diverse perspectives and open communication. I’m passionate about both learning from others and teaching those eager to grow.
When I’m not designing, I enjoy making music and riding bikes.
