About

Cameren Smith headshot

Born in the Midwest, I have lived my life through three core principles: faith, family, and community. Growing up, I played basketball and football, as well as tutored children at an after-school program at my local church. After graduating from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee with a focus in MIS, I worked in IT, graphic design, and freelance web development. Giving back to my community, I joined my local village police department as an Auxiliary Police Officer, joined the Army National Guard, and have been steadily volunteering for well-known organizations like United Way and American Red Cross. Professionally, I've designed graphics for small businesses around Milwaukee and Chicago, managed client accounts for a content-creator platform, and recently, have led the digital UI/UX transformation at a well-known international company. Beyond volunteering, I am currently building a 100% free to use, enterprise-grade emissions accounting platform for small to medium sized businesses.
