Amanda Silguero
I graduated with a Communications Design degree from Texas State University. A couple of years out of college, I got a job with Zappos.com as a Junior Visual Designer. I was with Zappos for almost 10 years and worked my way up to a Senior Visual Designer and the lead of a team of 7. During my tenure at Zappos, I pursued growth and learning by taking a UX design certification course with General Assembly and was able to assist a several UX projects for Zappos.
I balanced my day job with personal creative work, like hand lettering, illustration, and drawing. I also love to travel and spend time outside either hiking or brewery hopping with friends. I love creating new things whether its an designs for work, illustrations, lettering or lately hand building pottery.
I’ve been taking some time off from work to gather my thoughts but am I excited for the next chapter. I can’t wait to see what’s next and how I can continue to grow and connect with people in my next role.
