Seattle, Washington, United States
My name is Josue, a student at the University of Washington studying Human Centered Design & Engineering. Creativity is one of my strongest values, driving my passion for ux/ui, visual communications, and product design. My time at the University of Washington has exposed me to everything UX related, such as working with wireframing, prototyping, branding, and user-testing. Creativity boosts me to design for the people, and I feel like it allows people to show their story through different forms, and I would be more than happy to show you mine.
