What I'm looking for

I am looking for a collaborative environment that values creativity and innovation, where I can contribute to impactful design projects and further develop my skills.

As a UI/UX Designer with over 8 years of experience, I specialize in visual, graphic, and web design. My expertise lies in enhancing user engagement through innovative design solutions, utilizing tools like the Adobe Suite and Figma to create seamless user experiences. I am passionate about driving digital transformation and elevating brand identity through strategic design and user research.

In my current role at IBM, I identify client needs to create sitemaps, user flows, wireframes, mockups, and functional prototypes. I collaborate cross-functionally to align on project plans and timelines, conducting user research and interviews to establish successful user journeys. My previous experience includes leading design projects for FEMA applications and managing web design campaigns at JCW Creative, where I honed my skills in problem-solving and team collaboration.
