Hi, I'm Anna and here's my story.
Before I was designing digital products, I was psychoanalyzing people. I did my undergraduate degree at Western University in Psychology, which may as well have been a degree in empathy. As a designer, I love applying psychology to my design work. I use my knowledge and understanding of human motivations and behaviours to find creative and effective human-centered design solutions to complex design problems.
Here are some of my favourite things (besides design).
Singing, playing guitar, dancing (I competed for 8 years), karaoke, dogs, Marvel movies, astrology, and good espresso.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Good design is in the eye of the user.
Here are my defining experiences.
