HELLO

I'm Brandon Peña, a product designer and ecommerce partner based in New York City. I work with brands, startups, and studios who want more than execution. They want a designer who understands the business behind the pixels.

My background is unconventional. Before design, I spent years in customer-facing and operational roles across healthcare and sports marketing, where I watched people struggle through systems that should have been simple. That experience didn't just teach me empathy. It gave me a sharp eye for where products lose people, and how to fix it.

WHO

Experience

I've led design across ecommerce, marketing, and product, with deep hands-on experience building Shopify storefronts, improving conversion performance, and crafting digital experiences that actually move revenue. Before design, I managed high-volume client operations in healthcare and drove digital marketing initiatives in the sports industry. Those roles trained me to think beyond aesthetics and ask the harder question: does this work for the person using it?


That operational perspective is what separates the work I deliver from purely visual design.

APPROACH

I design for clarity, performance, and trust. Every project starts with understanding the business goal and the real friction users face, then building toward both at once. I collaborate closely with product, marketing, and development teams and show up as a partner invested in outcomes, not just deliverables. I iterate fast, communicate clearly, and stay focused on what actually matters: results you can measure.

kay's cakes

Kay's Cakes: Streamlining Online Cake Orders

Kay's Cakes needed a way to let customers order custom cakes online without a confusing back-and-forth. I designed the end-to-end ordering experience from concept to launch, focusing on reducing friction at every step and making the process feel as personal as walking into the shop.

Aska Studio - Concept

Responsive Aska Studio Website Design

A concept redesign for Aska Studio, exploring how a minimal visual identity translates across screen sizes without losing impact. The focus was on restraint: letting the work breathe while keeping navigation instinctive.

CASE STUDY COMING SOON

Product Exploration

Soft Glass Interface Study

A personal study in calm, tactile UI design using soft pastels, layered glass cards, and a stripped-back search experience. I use these explorations to stay sharp on visual details that don't always get space in client work.
