Designing with minds in mind - Melissa, UX/UI + Cognitive Science

I’m a User Experience Designer hoping to design interfaces that think the way people do. User experience impacts the entire customer journey, from the first point of interaction to the long-term relationships we build.

By understanding user perceptions, desires, & behaviors we can create the best user experience!
