Resume
Web UX Designer
Summary
I am a UX designer with over 10 years of experience working in marketing with a focus on creative strategy and development. I have worked on countless campaigns both in B2C and B2B to develop fresh, yet results-driven creativity that has led to business growth. All with one foundational goal in mind: creating customer obsessions for the brand and/or product.
I completed my certification in UX/UI design from the University of Washington in 2022, and since then, I have dove deeper into this world. UX design allows me to seamlessly merge my creativity and design thinking in a way I never thought possible within my career. From making design decisions based on a user’s need to brainstorming sessions to user-centered experiences to learning and applying the latest accessibility best practices. This is what makes me giddy about UX.
At my core, I’m a communicator with a vivid imagination. I love telling stories, especially visual stories and I feel invigorated when I have the opportunity to ideate on the story arc through journey mapping and bringing it to life in a digital-first experience.
