UX/UI Designer | Product Designer
Hi there! Im Amanda, a UX Designer with a background in fashion merchandising. My path to design was not linear. After getting my degree in graphic design at the University of San Francisco. I worked as a merchant for a fashion company. While there, I learned valuable skills in customer understanding, data analysis, design aesthetics, attention to detail, and user-centric solutions. I realized my love to develop products went beyond clothing and accessories. From there, I looked to pursue design in a more professional sense. When I found UX Design, it was like a lightbulb went off! I get to combine my creativity with product development? Yes, please! When Im not working, you can find me brushing up on my Figma and Framer skills, working in my garden, on a bike ride, or out listening to live music.
