My background is in marketing and I was recently a business consultant for managed service companies where
marketing, operations and sales were discussed on a daily basis. In my marketing role I was exposed to and had the opportunity to assist with the design and creation of the company’s new website. After years of consideration and consulting for tech companies, I decided to pivot my career path and to pursue a UX program to satisfy my interest in design. The ability to expand on my existing experience and skills through the program through the research, user flows and usability testing enabled me to expand my skillset and expose myself to design elements such as wire framing and prototyping. This position was intriguing due to having experience in the different roles and exposing myself to different professions that could help me relate to clients and their fields.
