I earned my master's degree in Human-Computer Interaction at the University of Michigan in 2016. Since then, I have worked as a UX designer.
I have worked for companies in different industries, including food delivery, smartphone, in-vehicle infotainment system, mobile OS, and the financial field.
Most of the time, I focused on interaction design and coding some prototypes. Besides, I would squeeze my time researching to know users better. Learning the user's journey helps design and makes my design more persuasive.
