Background

I'm a QA Engineer aspiring to mesh my career with my passion with UX experiences that deliver measurable results, focusing on innovative features and enhancements that boost engagement and drive business growth.

User experience is a passion for me. Leveraging my background as a QA Engineer, I bring a unique analytical perspective to delivering for mobile apps that sets me apart from others.

Outside of design, I try to find joy in things like hiking, kayaking, reading, and cooking. I value continuous learning and creative exploration, both personally and professionally. I'm currently open to work and actively looking for my next  opportunity.

My Strengths

User-Centric Perspective

Deep understanding of user needs: I was constantly evaluating products from the end-user's perspective. I identified pain points, usability issues, and areas of confusion. This user-centric mindset is crucial in design thinking, where understanding user needs is the foundation of the process.

Analytical and Critical Thinking

Data-driven decision making: QA often involved analyzing data from testing and user feedback. This data-driven approach can inform design decisions, ensuring that the product meets user needs and business goals. I use that systematic approach to seamlessly break down complex challenges into manageable steps.

Collaboration and Communication

Understanding technical constraints: Working closely with developers gave me deep insight into the technical feasibility of design ideas. I can also provide valuable input on potential challenges and limitations, helping other designers make informed decisions, while supporting the iterative development process.

Mobile App Design

Usability & Performance testing: My QA experience made me adept at conducting usability testing on mobile app prototypes, identifying areas for improvement in navigation, interaction design, and overall user experience. I can also ensure they are responsive, stable, and optimized for different devices and network conditions.
