My passion for design stems from my days of doing graphic design back in high school. I taught myself how to use Photoshop and Illustrator, and put my skills to practice by taking on side projects, such as logo designs for friends and family. Upon discovering UX/UI design, I knew instantly that this was the path I wanted to pursue, and I wholeheartedly dedicated all my efforts to it.
I recently finished the UX/UI design bootcamp at the University of Utah where I developed several skills that have helped me become the designer I am today. Some of the main skills I learned include wireframing, prototyping, usability testing, and user research. I'm currently working on completing the Google UX design certification, and a few freelance design projects.
When I'm not working, you can usually find me skiing, hiking, or camping with friends and family. I also love doing graphic design and painting in my spare time.
