About Me
I am a Houston based multidisciplinary designer. I currently work for a Houston based start-up tech company in the marketing department as a designer. After experiencing a stall in my career, I made the decision to expand my skillset in the craft of design and get my UI/UX certification to make a career pivot.

On October 23, 2024 I enrolled in the CourseCareers UI/UX Course and documented my whole experience completing my certification. I completed the course on December 31st just before 10pm, and I received my completion certificate in January 2025. Earning this certificate has been one of the greatest achievements of my life because it taught me that I can do whatever I set my mind to. It helped me strengthen my character and I became a more disciplined and curious designer.

I have closed the chapter to the UI/UX certification journey and now I am beginning a new chapter to becoming a expert in the craft and getting my first full time UX UI job. I am on the trajectory to becoming a successful and well paid designer. My excitement builds as I continue to level up in my career and life. You are cordially invited to grow through this journey with me. All support is appreciated!
