Thanks for stopping by my creative abode.

What’s up world? I’m Liv Varney (she/they), nice to meet you. I’m a visual designer living in New Hampshire. I spend most of my days working in higher education marketing and pouring my creative energy into other explorations to sharpen my skill set. If I’m not glued to university work, I’m working on designs or printing t-shirts for my brand, Young Fellow Clothing. As well as the occasional freelance project.

I studied at two small schools to gain my degree, first was a year and a half at Colby-Sawyer College in New London, New Hampshire. I took a semester off and transferred to Montserrat College of Art in Beverly, Massachusetts.

Shortly after finishing school I landed at Puma working as a junior designer for the internal creative agency. My role was to help develop digital and printed retail displays for the footwear company’s promotional uses. The retail environments consisted of footwear and apparel shops that cater to the music industry and brand ambassador trends. It was pretty cool, I learned a lot of the basics of how a design agency operates as well as standard operating procedures on how to support or promote a brand.

Shortly after my Forever Faster days came to a close, I ventured a bit and found that user experience and digital product design are skills worth learning. I was lucky to work with a few designers at Mad*Pow (now BORN XDS) for 9 months. I was responsible for helping build a product that is used to streamline well-known prescription drugs to customers but also allows patients to correspond back and forth with their providers. This product required several launches where features were added to each launch, allowing the program to blossom and become fully functional. I helped design what the application would look like when patients/providers were using the tool.

I am so grateful for all of the experiences I’ve had since graduating college. I hope to continue to network and work alongside amazing individuals who make a difference in the creative world.
