A little bit about myself.

My name is Ava Manning and I love to enhance the world through compelling storytelling and thoughtful designs.
​
Over the past six years, I have sharpened my skills in UX writing and information architecture. I began my professional career in media and journalistic writing where I developed a broad vocabulary and solid foundation in editorial guidelines, which seamlessly transitioned to my user experience writing. As someone who thrives on organization in all aspects of my life - from weekly meal prepping to creating structured digital files - this natural affinity has greatly deepened my understanding of information architecture. These experiences inform my design decisions, in which I strive to use clear information architecture and UX writing to create intuitive, memorable user experiences for companies.

Storytelling is in my blood. Whether on stage, in print, or by following a user's journey, I am constantly exploring new ways to share different worldviews. My love for storytelling sparks interest across mediums - from theater to UX design to songwriting.

I love connecting with people, so please feel free to reach out!
