Hello, my name is Winnie
SHE/HER/HERS
I'm currently a 3rd year student at George Brown College for Interaction Design and Development due to graduate spring 2022 and eager to secure challenging roles in UX, UI, branding and product design.
​
​
My studies have provided a broad range of skills in Adobe Creative Suite, Figma, animation, HTML/CSS, usability testing, prototyping and basic human factors and ergonomics. Alongside this, I have developed strong communication and organization skills while working in teams when executing projects.
​
​
While working freelance, I developed a range of visual content for social media campaigns and have designed websites through Squarespace and Wordpress for small, local entrepreneurs. My ability to efficiently turn around creative and eye-catching social media content has helped increase my clients’ engagement rates and fit consistently with their brand identity. Through creating curated social media content for my clients', I have resulted in consistent engagement YoY and 30+ successfully secured brand partnerships.
​
​
I am eager to hear more about potential career and internship opportunities and I'm enthusiastic to chat about job openings within interaction design and branding!
