Ux Designer
I am a creative, analytical and beginner UX/UI designer with a degree in Psychology and a Google UX design certificate holder based in Johannesburg, South Africa. My passion for art and helping others motivated me into pursuing a career in UX design where I get the opportunity to combine my research skills and user-centred design principles to identify user problems where user's needs are front and centre. Furthermore, produce functional and easy-to-use, innovative and interactive designs that are visually appealing.
