A Note on UX

A common thread throughout my work is a user-centric approach to problem solving. Whether entrepreneurial,

application-based, branding, or otherwise, an end user or audience must always be at the forefront of my mind.

In my mind, a good designer is one that never forgets the user s perspective and possible context.
