<h1>HI! I’m Erik, a UX/UI Designer who’s just trying to make stuff.</h1>
<p>I am [nearly] a UConn graduate looking for a <span class="underline">UX/UI position</span>. I design apps and tools for users that just want to get stuff done. I believe the <span class="underline">minimalist</span> approach is best way to do this. By stripping away unnecessary elements, using <span class="underline">precise language</span>, and <span class="underline">automating</span> as much as possible, users can cut through the tedium of telling their computer what to do.</p>
<p><strong>My Journey to UX Design</strong><br>
During the intro to computing course for my previous Engineering major at UConn, I found that my interests lied more on the programing side. After taking several more computer science courses, I realized I was much more interested in the UI aspects of an app, than actually coding it out. Through further research, I found that UX Design was the perfect mixture of my life long interest in computers and user friendly programs. After that I re-molded my plan of study to learn all the different skills of UX.
</p>
<p><strong>My Interests</strong><br>
When I’m not designing I’m probably running, thinking about running, or traveling to run around and take pictures.
