Hello & Welcome,
I'm Jessica.

Graduate Graphic Designer & UX/UI Enthusiast.

JessicaMarieDesignIcon#3.png

I'm a graduate Graphic Designer from the University of Newcastle, Australia with a Bachelor in Visual Communication and Design. Majored in Graphic Design and Illustration. I have many interests in areas within the creative sphere including Publication Design, Branding, and particularly, in UX/UI Design. 

​

I believe design should always be created with empathy, and with a dedication to inclusivity and accessibility which is why UX/UI is such a personal passion.

My Design Process

My design process usually follows the iterative process that is frequently used in UX/UI design. Depending on the creative project, I will tailor my process to better suit the scope and deliverables.
