About Me
Hello. I am a UX/UI Designer with a strong visual design foundation and a background in art and education. I am a strategic problem-solver and skilled with empathizing with people. I am currently working on a volunteer project with Climate Healers as the Lead UX Designer. I enjoy the work and would love to contribute to another project. My design experience includes end-to-end design, user research, personas, user flows, wireframes, low-fi and hi-fi mockupos, prototypes, and usability testing. I also enjoy branding and style guides, working with typography, and creating logos. I am a great communicator, collaborative, and reliable.
