Nick Conflitti

After designing for packaging, art directing advertising campaigns, and designing brand identities, user experience design is what brings me the most joy in my career. Some of my highlights include art directing a regional Super Bowl commercial, co-founding a food-tech social media platform, and designing a catalog for the Library of Congress. Most recently, I am helping establish a product team, R&D process, and a design system with a SaaS company in Boulder, Colorado that has been voted one of the top 100 places to work in the country by Outsider magazine in 2017.

"Ferris taught me the value of process. It helps facilitate collaboration and validation, which ultimately leads to a product that will make a connection with people."
