During the pandemic I had a lot of time on my hands, which allowed me to rediscover my artistic hobbies. I started drawing on procreate and created an Instagram page to keep my friends and family up to date on my latest doodles. It even lead me to a few freelance projects. Having a creative outlet reminded me of what I had loved as a kid. It felt liberating. This eventually lead me to UI/UX design. I wanted to do something everyday that gave me the ability to express my creativity.

This began my course with Career Foundry. I learned techniques for wireframes, user interviews, prototyping, and much more. The course allowed my passion for inclusive and intuitive design to flourish. My biggest goal as a designer is to create modern, engaging, and user centric interfaces that pave way to meaningful impact. My designs aren’t only a way for me to express myself but a way to showcase user identities, values, and stories.
