I Make Digital Ideas Feel Real.
About
I’m Chris Johnson, a UX designer and creative developer based in Omaha, Nebraska. For more than 20 years, I’ve helped turn complex ideas into websites, interfaces, products, and interactive experiences that feel clear, polished, and enjoyable to use.
My background spans UX, visual design, front-end development, animation, real-time 3D, and creative prototyping. That combination allows me to think beyond the appearance of an interface and consider how it behaves, how it performs, how it scales, and how it feels in someone’s hands.
I live at the intersection of design and code—where creativity meets problem-solving. Whether it’s a marketing site, a product interface, or an interactive installation, I focus on making things clean, accessible, and built for real people.
Based in Omaha, Nebraska, I team up with clients and collaborators all over the U.S., turning visions into websites and products that leave a lasting impression.
