Summary
Hello, I'm Mary, a UI/UX design graduate from Springboard. With my psychology background from California State University, Fullerton, I recognized the synergy between user experience research and psychology principles, prompting my transition to UI/UX. In recent projects, I researched and designed a medical app enabling secure medical record sharing, with features like provider messaging and appointment scheduling. I also crafted an E-commerce platform for beauty products and a study place locator app to help people find a place to get their work done. Additionally, I designed a low-fidelity chatbot prototype to help users find grants for their company. My approach combines creativity with problem-solving, ensuring impactful results on every project. I'm eager to leverage my skills and passion for intuitive user experiences and user-centered research towards the full-time Admin Operations Specialist in Technology User Research Service position at the WITS Irvine location.
