Design.

It is an integral part of everything we see and touch in everyday life, every aspect of it representing a choice. It is often said that the best designs are the ones you don't notice, but design is an intersection between art and science. Creating something intuitive enough for the fog of interaction to go unnoticed yet beautiful enough to be remembered is at the core of what we do. I dove deep into my specialization of Human-Computer Interaction to better understand how to discern a product's purpose and light the way to achieving it. As a 23 year old, I'm fairly new to the game but I work hard, learn quick, and see every challenge and critique as an opportunity to grow. Even this portfolio has served me as an exercise in design and coding, as I built this website from the ground up with just HTML, CSS, Javascript, and JQuery - no frameworks necessary.
