New York, NY
SUMMARY:
- As a young kid, I was awestruck how my mother who was a computer science guru managed to also be an exceptional public speaker, communicator, and businesswoman and how she sought out to find solutions to problems and came up with an amazing business.
- She wore many hats successfully and inspired me to do so in my own life. Now I, too, am a wearer of many hats.
- Driven by my mother’s success in technology, I pursued web development, coding, and user experience design to enhance my existing knack for design and problem solving.
- In addition to being a web developer and designer, I have immersed myself in entrepreneurial activities and the pursuit of creating great ideas into marketable business concepts through being involved with several startups and bringing my entreprenurial mindset to existing companies like Confidential Sports.
- Additionally, I love critical design and crafting delightful solutions to things that affect people's lives on a daily basis.
- Specifically, UX Design is a wonderful hybrid of things that has allowed me to use my visual design skills, my adeptness at programming and working with data, market and user research capabilities, and my outgoing personality to talk to real users in order to make critical design decisions.
- People and users are the heart of UX Design; not just the customers who are presented with the deliverable at the end of the process.
- UX Design — and really anything—depends upon the people in different segmentations of the business that have an additionally profound effect on the final deliverable.
- In my experience, I've learned to bridge the gaps and conflicting needs between stakeholders within a company from developers to marketers, and business development to iterate and craft great deliverables. I have the skills, I'm a team player, and most importantly, I know how to identify and solve problems.
- I have an immense passion for UX Design, development, and people.
- I not only excel at the tasks at hand, but I also strive to look for opportunities in all areas and love to take on new challenges and more responsibilities.
- My desire is to make the world a better place with user centered design thinking, lean business processes, and managing and working with people to make a company the strongest it can be.
- I know I would be a great asset to your company and I would love to be part of the team.
