Hey, it’s Alex.

My design philosophy is mainly centered around empathy and determination. I believe that empathy is an incredible tool in design to help us understand problems users are facing, and determination helps us keep going to find solutions to those problems where it seems like there are none.

I graduated from the University of Washington with a double degree in Informatics (Human-Computer Interaction) and Sociology. I am currently looking to start my professional career in UI/UX.

Outside of UI/UX, you can find me perusing various Wikipedia and CNN articles for inspiration, taking a stroll to the 520 floating bridge to see Lake Washington, or cooking takoyaki for my friends and family.
