Hard Skills

User Experience & User Interface Designer

My approach to UX Design encompasses both the company's objectives and the users' needs. It is essential to have a clear understanding of the company's goals for each project, as well as identifying the target users and their goals to achieve their desired outcomes.

As a UI Designer, my role is to bring the UX vision to life. This requires me to translate high-level requirements into intuitive interaction flows, design artifacts, and create visually appealing, functional user interfaces.

Programming is not only a skill set but also a passion of mine. Over the past few years, I have diligently honed my skills, leveraging educational websites like TreeHouse and Lynda to master the fundamentals of HTML/CSS and Vanilla Javascript. I am currently pursuing my Bachelor's degree in Computer Science at FIU to expand my knowledge further.

Giving Back

Philanthropy is an essential aspect of my personal ethos, and I regard it as a crucial obligation as a member of society. I take great pleasure in volunteering my services pro bono or making donations to charitable causes that resonate with me, though I recognize that my contribution pales in comparison to those who dedicate their lives to these noble pursuits.

One organization I that I have collaborated with extensively is BARC. BARC a nonprofit that rescues Boxer Dogs. I was privileged to adopt my beloved pet Emmy from this wonderful organization. Some years ago, I spearheaded a charitable fundraiser that generated more than six thousand dollars for BARC. I am humbled and gratified to be a part of such a worthwhile enterprise.
