Hi! I'm Ethan.

A multi-disciplinary UX designer specializing in

I think design gets really interesting when the creator's personality shines through.

How I got into UX.

My journey into UX started with my love for cars, of all things. I've always viewed them as an extremely underrated medium for art — one that combines visual aesthetics with a specifically tuned user experience.

What I've been doing

After completing two years at my local community college, where I experimented with front end development, sculpting, and architectural drafting, I discovered Cal Poly's Graphic Communication program.

For the past two years, I've been enrolled in a steady 16+ units while maintaining President's honor roll, heavily involved with several student orgs, and pursued personal projects.

Where I'm at now

Now I'm on the hunt for an internship or full time position where I can dedicate the same effort I've been putting in non-stop for the past 4 years.
