Who I Am

My name is Erin Morelli and I am a Graphic and Web Designer residing in the Albany, NY area. I graduated from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) in 2011 with a bachelor’s degree in electronic media, arts, and communication, focusing on interaction design, and a co-terminal master’s degree in human-computer interaction. I moved to the Albany area after graduating and work locally as a web and graphic designer serving a diverse client base. I have a passion for creating simple, clean user experiences and especially love the WordPress platform and responsive designs.
When I’m not working I enjoy biking, surfing the web, reading a good book or comic, writing, as well as watching and avidly tweeting about TV. I’ve also recently started geocaching, which has taken me on some great adventures.
Also, be sure to read my featured profile in the Times Union from October 2010, which you can find here.
