Hey there! 👋 As a passionate UX/UI designer, I thrive on the thrill of understanding users' needs and crafting experiences that go above and beyond. With a solid foundation—a Bachelor's Degree in Design from UC Davis and a Google UX Design Certificate from Coursera—I bring a unique perspective to the table. In my previous position as the UI/UX Design Mentor Lead at Avocademy, I wasn't just a mentor, I was a guide, a coach, and a cheerleader for over 500+ aspiring designers. Together, we fine-tuned course content, tweaked review processes, and delved into the nitty-gritty of design. One of my favorite experiences? Collaborating with a dynamic team to cook up a good user experience flow, brainstorming sessions, and bring stake holder's vision to life! I live and breathe the design thinking process—from getting inside users' heads to crafting sleek prototypes for testing. Figma and I are practically best buds, and together, we've whipped up everything from brand platforms to wireframes. But it's not just about pixels and prototypes; it's about people. I love diving into user interviews, surveys, and tests, uncovering insights, and turning them into actionable design decisions. Always up for a challenge and perpetually curious, I'm on a mission to learn, grow, and push the boundaries of UX/UI design. Let's connect and create something awesome together! 🚀…
