SOME HISTORY
UX Design allows me to combine my technical and creative skills to make an impact. This passion is rooted in my long devotion to creation. I have always loved designing and innovating.
✦ In elementary school, I was obsessed with duct tape and made everything I could think of: bracelets, wallets, purses, storage boxes, and pencil pouches. I also ran a collage account and created photo edits for my favorite YouTuber, Bethany Mota.
✦ In 2015, I wanted to make a brand for myself so I created an Instagram account to post hauls and vlogs and review self-care products. After nearly a year, I had accumulated over 2 thousand followers and was inspired to do more.
✦ By 2017, I had evolved my photo and video editing skills and started a video editing account. I taught myself Adobe After Effects and began commissioning custom edits. Simultaneously, I sparked an interest in slime-making and crafted unique combinations to sell to my classmates.
After many more years of hobbies and starting a small business, I discovered the love that I have always had for creativity and design thinking. I can now apply this to a larger scale of desigining for users.
