I'm Noelle Mendelson, a designer and historian based in DC, blending over 5 years of experience in visual and UX design with a passion for educational technology and digital humanities.
My work spans marketing, editorial, graphic, and web design for diverse clients, including academic programs, small businesses, and nonprofits.
Currently, as the 2024-2025 Digital Humanities Fellow at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, I leverage UX design and GIS mapping to explore and present the history of lesbian and trans communities in early 20th-century Germany. I strive to create engaging, user-centered products that bring overlooked narratives to life.
I'm excited to collaborate with innovative brands and organizations, aiming to enhance user experiences through impactful and playful designs. Outside of work, you'll find me running, baking, or crocheting!
