Hi! I'm Julia. 👋 I'm a UX Designer.

My goals are to create meaningful and intuitive digital experiences and to remain teachable and curious as a designer.

Transitioning from a background as a tattoo artist, I've enjoyed integrating my design skills into the realm of UI/UX.

For instance, while tattooing, I developed strong visual design and communication skills while also learning to take frequent critiques and make iterations.

Most importantly, I learned to focus on designing for the client’s needs. This has translated nicely into my current work as a UX designer in the form of a user-centric approach to crafting solutions.

Currently, I'm gaining hands-on experience as a User Experience Design Intern at Juvare, a software company specializing in solutions for emergency preparedness and response.

In addition to my professional work, I've played key roles in academic projects, such as serving as Lead UX Designer on Otzi, a prototype for a tattoo booking app. I'm familiar with Agile methodologies, as well as Alan Cooper's Goal-Directed Design.
