UX / UI Designer & Developer
My enthusiasm for UX/UI design complements my strengths in attention to detail, user empathy, and prioritizing user needs. I specialize in crafting personas, designing user journeys, creating mood boards, and developing wireframes and prototypes utilizing tools such as Figma, Adobe XD, Miro, Trello and Procreate.
I have utilized these skills to fully design an app, Furry Friends, to solve a need I've noticed in my own life. The process involved creating a full UX study to ideate a solution, then iterate on hypotheses and outcomes.
By combining my knowledge in UX/UI and Front-End Development, I transform ideas into reality using languages such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. I translate conceptual designs into responsive and visually captivating websites. My expertise extends to optimizing user interfaces, ensuring smooth navigation, and creating meaningful user experiences. Proficient in the latest front-end frameworks like React and Bootstrap, I excel in transforming static designs into dynamic web applications. This allows me to create interactive and user-friendly digital experiences that resonate with both clients and end-users alike.
As a backend developer, my skills include Python, Django, JavaScript, Express, and React, allowing me to construct efficient and scalable web applications. Proficient in server-side scripting and API development, I specialize in ensuring seamless data management and optimal performance. Leveraging strong skills in Tkinter and Node, I enhance user interfaces to provide a cohesive and intuitive user experience. Experienced in version control using Git, I actively contribute to the development of robust backend systems. With a toolset that includes Visual Studio Code and GitHub, I bring a comprehensive approach to building dynamic and interactive web applications.

Hello, I'm Tia, a UX/UI Designer and Web Developer with a unique background in Technical Theatre. Having served as a Theatrical Electrician, Programmer, and Designer for several years, I've honed skills in collaboration, effective communication, punctuality, and the importance of being a team player.
With the onset of the pandemic, I seamlessly transitioned to UX/UI and Web Development, utilizing my innate sense of design. Creating projects that come to life and benefit users is incredibly rewarding. Drawing from years in collaborative arts, I bring effective troubleshooting skills, efficiency, patience, and empathy to design to build intuitive applications that enhance users' technological experiences.
Outside of wireframing, prototyping, and coding, I live an active lifestyle. I enjoy traveling, running, climbing, and yoga. However, I also partake in occasional sedentary activities from time to time, such as reading, sewing, and my ultimate guilty pleasure: video gaming
I am fueled by the transformative impact of creating applications that not only benefit people but also enhance their lives. I look forward to the continued pursuit of meaningful innovation and user-centric design in this exciting journey.
