UX/UI Designer
User-Centered Design, Interaction Design, and AI Exploration
Hello! I'm a creative thinker with a strong background in front-end engineering, deeply passionate about user interaction and experiences. Proficient in React, TypeScript, and Tailwind, I bring robust problem-solving skills and a commitment to user-centered design. Having recently completed the eCornell UX Design Certification, I'm finalizing my diverse portfolio, using Figma for UI design and prototyping. Alongside this, I've ventured into Artificial Intelligence, exploring various AI tools and prompting techniques to enrich user interfaces. Eager to contribute in a creative and dynamic environment, I'm ready to influence the exciting evolution of AI and UX design.
