HI! I’m Erik, a UX/UI Designer who’s just trying to make stuff.

I am [nearly] a UConn graduate looking for a UX/UI position. I design apps and tools for users that just want to get stuff done. I believe the minimalist approach is best way to do this. By stripping away unnecessary elements, using precise language, and automating as much as possible, users can cut through the tedium of telling their computer what to do.

My Journey to UX Design
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.

My Interests
When I’m not designing I’m probably running, thinking about running, or traveling to run around and take pictures.
