Bio

This is the bio of Daniel Hobbs, a product designer in the Middle Tennessee Area.

 

Hi, I’m a product designer specializing in fintech, SaaS, and design systems, currently at Ramsey Solutions.

 
 

I have over 15 years of craft across communication, marketing, and product design with the last 5 years focused as a product designer for web and mobile applications. I like digging into why people get stuck, working closely with product and engineering as a genuine collaborator, and building things that actually work for real people.

 
 
 

My Story

I was born into a graphic designer’s home, and started my design career laying out high school football programs and produce packaging catalogues for my dad’s side hustle. I went on to get my BA in graphic design from Western Kentucky University.

My career has had many twists and turns over the years from taking photos and video of mission trips in Africa, to being the sole product designer for a coaching program that taught and supported coaches with both online learning, and CRM tools for them to run their businesses.

My latest project has been working with a team of designers to refine and rebuild our design system for the EveryDollar budgeting app, while supporting our engineers as they rebuild the app in a different front-end codebase.
