Hi, I'm Alison

I am a UX/UI Designer based in Miami, FL.

My degrees in psychology, art history, and business from Tulane University help me create human-centered designs. Curious by nature, I love discovering and understanding people. I like to lay low and keep my ears open to gather information and observations to learn about a user.

My interest in user experience design began at a young age while watching my grandmother struggle to use a computer. Scroll down to learn more.

When I'm not designing, I love to bake, cook, and listen to Phish. I am passionate about sustainability, and supporting local.

psychology

Curious about understating people's cognitive and emotional processes when interacting with the world, I got a B.S in Psychology. Asking "why?" and completing research has been engrained in everything I do.

As the curator of a children's art museum I created interactive experiences in physical space. By completing user research I made informed design decisions with a focus on accessibility and entertainment.

This Is For You Grandma

From the age of 7 I watched my grandmother struggle with the computer. I would print out screenshots of webpages and applications she would have trouble with, tape them to a piece of paper, and hand draw arrows to explain each button's function. She kept a stack of these guides for years.

Using a computer was her mission, but its inaccessibility was her worst nightmare.
I think that in that sense, I wanted to be a UX designer long before I knew what UX was.

Today, I strive to create accessible, user-friendly designs that help our grandparents waste less paper.
