Hi! I’m Ethan.
I’m a third year at UC San Diego studying Cognitive Science with a specialization in Design and Interaction. I’ve always loved expressing my own creativity, whether that be dribbling a basketball, designing flyers for clubs, planning out school dances, or making witty jokes to annoy my friends.
I discovered UX Design by aimlessly entering myself into a design competition with no prior UX experience! In those 2 and a half days, I learned so much about the design process and how design can be used to solve problems. Ever since then, I’m always trying my best to improve as a designer. Design has taught me how to become a better listener, how to take criticism, how to communicate with others, and improve my critical thinking.
During my free time, I love playing basketball 🏀, photography 📷, going to cafes 🧋, and traveling 🌃!
