Context
Obsessed with design, love people
All my design work is rooted in empathy and a drive to see others efficiently succeed
With a background in user experience design, architecture and writing, I excel at translating abstract ideas into tangible, user friendly designs which not only look great but work seamlessly. My ability to think on both system and granular levels enables me drive impact with design
Experience
Public facing work is central to who I am
I am invested in creating unique experiences for the public to enjoy
I have 4 years of industry experience, where I have created concepts for public commercial & cultural clients.
I am able to accurately map and analyze life experiences and translate them into aesthetic products that meet all stakeholders' needs.
Strengths
I always dig deeper till I strike gold
I enjoy tackling bottlenecks and much like with a puzzle, will search through multiple solutions till I find one that clicks
The combination of my history and graduate degree help me do two things well:
-
Ask the questions that enable me to understand what is going on behind the mask
-
Design, with those things in mind, objects which people can enjoy​
You can call me YEE-me-kah
