Hi, I'm Julie!
I recently graduated from Wellesley College (c/o ‘23) with a Bachelor of Arts in
Computer Science. I’m a Product Designer that
strives to creates positive, intuitive, and delightful experiences
for people! I’m particularly interested in designing for
B2C companies, as I love
working on consumer projects that people can use and interact with daily
and/or casually.
I found my dream occupation after I took a Human-Computer Interaction
class the summer of my sophomore year. I entered that class as a
computer science major and walked away as a designer with big ideas,
visions, and aspirations.

How I go about bridging design and code
Figma, Goodnotes
1. Ideate & Design
I start with sketches and then move to Figma to bring my vision to life. I'll iterate on designs until I feel like I have a solid MVP for development.

2. Inspect
After designing, I use the Figma “Inspect” tool and extract key attributes like color, size, shadow, etc.
visual studio code, atom
3. Code/Iterate Away
While Figma’s inspect tool is great, it isn’t perfect. I visualize the layout of my design, translate everything into code, and add some motion-design-magic ✨
