👋🏼 Hi there! I'm Amber from Oakland, CA.

A wee bit about me…

⌛ MY PAST: I'm an art school dropout with a history in visual/graphic design.

🐱‍🏍 MY PRESENT: I'm a student at Designlab UX Academy. Heheh... I also am the founding Product Designer at a fashion-tech startup in the bay area. I also do freelance design work on the side. I also am an ADPList.org ambassador helping mentees find great mentors to guide them on their journey...also...also...also...!

🔮 MY FUTURE: Wearing a lot of hats at a startup…🚀 I'm interested in solving problems in the areas of productivity, time/project management, or personal/social enrichment.

Also, I'd like to always be at a company that will allow me to wear one of my many adult-sized onesies to work. (I have 5. One is a Bulbasaur, which is my starter Pokémon. Important fact.)

Basically, in early 2020, I decided to move back into the creative field - like I always wanted to - and I realized that UX/UI is the career path I wanted to follow.

And that's all she wrote ✍🏼
