About me
I am a highly motivated freelancer working as a UI, UX, and editorial designer. I have been working as a freelancer in UI
and editorial work for just under 6 years, with 3 years spent on UX design.
As a freelancer I work directly with clients where I build strong relationships and have experience asking the right questions to solve their problems. I am now looking to transition my career into a full-time UI/UX designer.
I'm not designing all the time though! When I'm not, you can find me baking delicious cakes, biscuits, and cooking new foods.
