Hey there, I'm Desarae!
I’m a UX designer with over three years of experience in user experience design and five years in marketing. My marketing background gives me a unique edge in creating digital experiences that not only engage users but also boost brand visibility and business growth.
I’m driven, detail-oriented, and love using tools like Figma, Sketch, and Adobe XD to bring ideas to life through wireframes and prototypes. Whether I’m working on digital projects or finding ways to improve everyday experiences, I’m passionate about designing intuitive, engaging interfaces. Thriving in collaborative, agile environments is my specialty, and I’m always ready to tackle the next challenge.Feel free to reach out—I'm excited to collaborate!
