About Me
Hi, I'm
Adrianna.
I'm a multidisciplinary UX Researcher and UX/UI Designer who believes that design is most powerful when it serves people who have been overlooked. My work sits at the intersection of empathy, craft, and community.

My Story
Where design
meets
purpose.
My passion for User Experience stems from the intersection of empathy and creativity. I've always been curious about how digital experiences are designed and how thoughtful design decisions shape the way people interact with technology. Long before discovering UX as a career, I was building websites for myself, family, and friends while questioning what made certain interfaces engaging, intuitive, or frustrating.
UX allows me to combine my creative, analytical, and human-centered thinking to design experiences that positively impact people's lives.
Today, I bring that same fire to every project. Whether I'm designing a mobile app for Black queer individuals to find safe spaces, rebuilding a food delivery flow that actually makes sense, or crafting a small business's first website, I treat every user as someone whose time and trust matter .
Outside of UX, I'm a visual designer who loves typography, brand identity, and the quiet craft of a well-made business card. I believe great design works at every scale.
What I Stand For
Design values
Empathy First
Every design decision starts with deeply understanding the people who will use it. I listen before I sketch.
Community-Centered
I ask why constantly : why does this flow break? why do users drop off here? The best solutions live in those answers.
Curiosity-Driven
I gravitate toward projects that serve under-represented communities and believe design has real social responsibility.
Craft Matters
Polish isn't vanity. Thoughtful micro-interactions, tight hierarchy, and clean systems build trust with users.
