About Me

Hey! My name is James and I am a UI/UX designer and developer located in the greater New York area. I graduated from Drexel University’s five-year User Experience and Interaction Design (UXID) program in June 2022, where I learned a variety of skills in UX/UI research, design, and development.

I develop fully-responsive, user-friendly websites and applications for clients and internal projects, specializing in React/Next.js. My expertise extends to UI/IXD design, where I bring wireframes to life through prototypes and interactive designs.

I served as the lead User Interface Designer for "Shuffle," our junior workshop project, which received the 2021 Web Design Award from Graphic Design USA. Additionally, I led software development for "Orbital," our senior project, which earned an award in the MUSE Creative Awards 2022.
