About Me

About Me

Empathetic, tenacious and innovative UX/UI Designer intent on producing user-centric designs which work for businesses and developers with a focus on scalability, usability, and excitement. I want to go against the grain to deliver unique and tailored design solutions for a wide audience, conscious of inclusivity and accessibility in a rapidly-evolving world.

My Experience

My Experience

  • Dealt with resistance and iterated by taking critique on board to reach compromise between my ideas and user needs.

  • Developed my understanding of design ideas versus real-world constraints such as time and cost of development.
