UX/UI Design · University of Miami · Florida · lmm320@miami.edu

Welcome to my resume, here you will find that I am the jack of all trades. I spent my time obtaining my bachelor's degree in fine arts at my alma mater, Western Kentucky University! There I studied all things arts and concentrated my learning to graphic design. I then decided to further my education as a graduate student at the University of Miami in Miami, FL studying UX/UI Design.

My passion thrives within the world of graphics, learning all that I can. From animation within Maya software, to all things Adobe, to GameSalad, HTML, Sketch, traditional painting and drawing and so much more! Here; I bring all of my zest, energy and passion into everything I do.

Experience

During my time at WKU, I worked within the Admissions Office working on projects that would help guide young minds into discovering the beauty and wonderful education that Western Kentucky has to offer. One of the last projects that I worked on while there, was redesigning the Admissions Tour Bus!
You can now see my work driving around campus.
