Hi there 👋🏼,
I'm Nicholas, a UX/UI designer focused on interaction design and design systems.
📍 ..Based in San Francisco, California
🎓 ..M.S. in Information (UX-HCI) at UM
My Approach
- Inclusive Design: including users throughout the design process in order to build user-centered solutions that improve people’s lives.
- Creative Problem Solving: using tools like Miro, Jira, Qualtrics, Otter.io, Slack, Notion, and Google Workspace to help me tackle difficult problems, understand users, and collaborate more efficiently.
- Design Systems: collaborating with other designers in Figma, building scalable component libraries using auto-layout and variants.
My Background
Before moving into UX design in 2020, I worked in creative operations on-site at Google and at Pandora, enabling designers to produce quality work at scale.
At Pandora, I was the Volunteer & Partnerships Lead for the Pride LGBTQ+ resource group where I organized panels, volunteer events, and programming for local Oakland youth.
In addition to being a designer, I am also a dog dad, a gaymer, a practicer of yoga, and an avid trail runner.
