more about HAYLEY

Originally from Los Angeles, I spent eight years in San Diego, earning my degree at SDSU and starting my career in business marketing and accounting. Drawn to technology, I transitioned into coding, where I discovered UX design—the perfect blend of my analytical skills and creativity.

In September, I completed my master’s in UX design in London and have since been expanding my skills with graphic design courses. Beyond design, I love traveling, discovering new food spots, and exploring creative inspiration in everyday life. With a diverse background and a user-centered mindset, I thrive in collaborative spaces, eager to craft meaningful and impactful experiences.
