I am a highly motivated UI/UX Designer and Front-End Developer with a passion for creating visually appealing and impactful interfaces. Currently, I am pursuing a Masters in Digital Media with a focus on Human Computer Interaction at the University of Central Florida. Throughout my education and professional experience, I have developed a strong skill set in design and development tools such as Figma, Canva, Visual Studio Code, Jira, and Git. I am proficient in HTML/CSS, JavaScript, Artificial Intelligence, Tailwind CSS, and React.

During my time as a Product Designer at Queros, I was responsible for developing wireframes, sitemaps, mockups, and prototypes to visually articulate the app's core functionalities and user flows. I conducted user interviews and usability testing sessions to gather valuable feedback, which informed key design decisions. By utilizing gamification principles, I successfully drove active engagement and success in the mobile application. With Figma, I established a distinct visual identity for the brand, creating a positive and engaging user environment.

As an Associate Software Engineer at Palo Alto Networks, I enhanced internal and external applications by creating user flows, sitemaps, wireframes, and prototypes. This resulted in improved usability and a seamless user experience. I collaborated with cross-functional teams to deliver research insights, improving communication and efficiency. Through agile methodologies, I managed MacOS initiatives, Google Domain Automations, and Jamf Connect deployments, driving a 30% improvement in efficiency and security.

During my internship at Bose Corporation, I focused on enhancing the user experience of the Bose iOS app. I prototyped a cloud-based image, GIF, and config fetcher using Swift, Python, and Docker, showcasing the potential for improved UI features, content flexibility, and efficient development. I also developed comprehensive technical documentation and performed usability testing for new UI features. Through collaboration with the Scrum team, I prioritized project backlog and contributed to smooth sprint execution using T-shirt sizing.
