from people to pixels: crafting 
user-centered digital experiences.


Hey I’m Alex! I am a Bronx native passionate about the intersection of technology and design. While studying as a graphic design and IT double major at Syracuse University, I discovered my love for UX/UI and web design, and now I focus on designing digital content that is both visually appealing and user-friendly. Motion design is another love of mine, and you’ll see hints of it throughout my work.

My skills in graphic design, technology, and information management help me craft engaging interfaces and optimize content for maximum impact. Outside of design, I enjoy writing poetry, nail art, spending time with family, and music.
