\u2022<\/span> Website Accessibility
\n<\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n
<\/span><\/div>\n\n

I bring over 9 years of experience ensuring websites and digital products meet WCAG 2.1, Section 508, and ADA accessibility standards. My expertise includes auditing websites for compliance, remediating accessibility issues in code and content, and implementing best practices that improve usability for all users, including those with disabilities. I collaborate with designers, developers, and content teams to integrate accessibility into every stage of the project lifecycle, from wireframes and prototypes to final deployment. With a strong understanding of assistive technologies, semantic HTML, ARIA roles, and inclusive design principles, I ensure that digital experiences are both compliant and user-friendly.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

\u2022<\/span> UX\/UI Design<\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n
<\/span><\/div>\n\n

As a UX\/UI Designer, I specialize in creating digital experiences that are intuitive, engaging, and visually impactful. I have a strong command of Figma, which I use as my primary tool for wireframing, prototyping, and building collaborative design systems. My process begins with user research and wireframing, ensuring that every layout is strategically aligned with user needs and project goals. I then move into interactive prototyping, allowing stakeholders and teams to visualize the user journey and provide feedback early in the process. With a clear understanding of the difference between user experience (UX) and user interface (UI), I ensure that designs not only look beautiful but also function seamlessly. I am skilled at applying design principles, typography, and color theory to create cohesive, accessible, and brand-consistent interfaces. Collaboration is central to my approach, and I work closely with developers, content creators, and stakeholders to bring designs to life with precision. Above all, I am passionate about design and love transforming ideas into digital solutions that improve usability, engagement, and overall customer satisfaction.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n
