Where are you from and/or where are you based as a Memorisely student?

I am originally from Montana ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ, the land of the Big Sky **and in my opinion, the most beautiful place in the country. But two years ago, ย I relocated to Colorado ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ for work. I live in the city but in as little as 15 minutes, I could be camping in the mountains to watch the stars โ€” best of both worlds.

This is my hometown of Missoula at dusk

And this is where I get to live now, traveling in our van on days off!

What inspired you to pursue UX/UI and become a designer?

I have always been intrigued by designs of websites and products and why designers made the decisions they did. A traditional grad program wasnโ€™t right for me so I was looking for an online platform that would suit my needs. Here I am!

Which Bootcamp did you choose to enroll in, and why?

I chose to enroll in the UX/UI bootcamp because this is my first introduction into the field and I wanted to get a broader learning experience to see what really sparks my interest.

What will a typical day look like for you as a student?

I work full time and look forward to incorporating classes into the mix. My typical day, as of now, consists of coffee, books, and porch swings.

What is your current workspace setup?

I work from wherever the wifi and coffee is.

What (digital or physical) product recently blew your socks off?

I love Papier products so much and my life has become so much more organized because of their daily planners. Safe to say, my socks were in fact, blown off.

What tunes do you listen to while designing?

Songs that make me feel the heavy emotions are the songs that get me going. Seems counterintuitive but artists like Hailaker and Noah Kahan are my biggest motivators
