Brenda Halvorson

Senior User Experience Designer

About

I grew up on a generational farm in rural Minnesota, working and playing hard. I'm endlessly curious, driven to solve problems, and tenacious about continuous improvement.

I’m energized by growth.

My interactive design journey evolved thru agency experience followed by UX roles in manufacturing, just culture SaaS, financial, and healthcare sectors. Following a BFA in graphic design, I studied interactive design at Brainco, UX research and design at Prime Digital Academy, and earned CUA and CXA certifications thru Human Factors International (HFI).

I advocate for outliers.

Caring is at my core. Complex challenges and diverse perspectives fuel my creativity.

With intrinsic curiosity, empathy-driven research, and innovative human-centered design, I create meaningful and empowering experiences.

“Brenda has a unique ability to think about the big picture and anticipate all the needs of the project.”

Let's Get to Work!

Steep Perspectives was built on the reality that team and project needs shift.

Whether you need momentum on a single project or ongoing support, I can absorb complex overflow or push a focused initiative forward. My multidisciplinary background helps me connect with technical, creative, and executive teams.

I bring together user insights, systems-level thinking, and design craft to help connect emerging tools and ideas to your audience.

I offer fractional UX research and design support through flexible retainers, short‑term full‑ or part‑time leave coverage, and clearly scoped project engagements. My work blends clarity, systems thinking, and practical design craft to meet teams where they are and keep progress moving.
