What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters creativity and innovation, where I can grow my skills in UI/UX design and contribute to meaningful projects.

I am an aspiring UI/UX Engineer with a strong passion for technology, user-centered design, and software development. Though I’m at the beginning of my journey, I’m deeply motivated to grow, learn, and contribute meaningfully to impactful digital experiences. My dedication to mastering programming, problem-solving, and design principles drives me to explore innovative solutions that enhance usability and user satisfaction.

During my internship at Aayu Technologies LLC, I worked on multiple SaaS platforms, contributing to UI/UX design, branding, SEO, and frontend development in a real-world agile environment. I designed intuitive UIs in Figma and Adobe XD, led branding initiatives, and conducted UX research to improve workflows. My projects, including enhancing mobile night photography quality and developing a real estate site, showcase my commitment to creating engaging user experiences.
