My experience includes working as a Freelance UX Designer and as a UX Designer/Software Support Engineer at MoxiWorks, where I was involved in all stages of the UX design process. Additionally, I was a UX Designer at CareerFoundry, where I was the sole designer for a task-management app. My skills include research, strategic planning, user testing, wireframing, prototyping, and creating UI and AI flow reports. Prior to my UX roles, I worked as a Database Engineer at FreeDoc, where I managed and audited large databases. My diverse background has equipped me with a deep understanding of design principles and the ability to create user-centric experiences.
