Hi, I'm Desiree!
I am a UX/UI Designer with nine years of experience in Graphic Design. Certificate from Georgia Tech UX/UI Bootcamp with skills in the User-Centric Design Process, User Research, Wireframing, Prototyping, HTML, CSS, Javascript, jQuery, and Bootstrap. I am a highly driven professional passionate about developing successful digital products with relevant, on-trend designs. Teamwork, creativity, and punctuality are my strongest traits, along with accomplishing the full design process from ideation to production. I recently completed the development of a tailored pet adoption app where I interviewed potential users on their criteria when searching for an adoptable animal. Based on usability feedback, I was able to create an easy and effective process for users to find their perfect furry friend. My graphic design background with my strong problem solving-skills and attention to precise detail makes me a valuable addition to any team.
