Hi! I'm August.

​

I'm a self-taught nerd, vinyl enthusiast, rabbit dad, and emerging UX/UI Designer.

​​

My dream is to design products and experiences that empower individuals, tell stories, improve well-being, and create novel interactions.

As part of the Google UX Design program, I was tasked with designing a responsive app for desktop and mobile. To make a niche hobby like retro gaming accessible to everyone, I prioritized designing for those who were both new to and enthusiastic about retro games.

Ordering takeout, but made effective
FM Ramen

My first project for the Google UX Design program was to create a dedicated food delivery app. To stand out in a saturated market, the app offers a seamless user flow that addresses the user pain points of its competitors.

Creative Exercises

Diving deeper into responsive design
Pigeon

My initiative behind this project was to design an app prototype utilizing a mobile-first approach and atomic design principles. Through the design process, I demonstrate mastery of Figma's auto layout, variable, and component features, as well as breakpoints between devices.

As part of my undergraduate degree, I designed the branding and packaging for a study aid targeted at college students. The product draws inspiration from student life and makes a case for itself as a necessity for finals season.

Match the kicks to the artist
Sneaker Jams

As a fan of music, shoes, and poster design, I created a series of posters inspired by musicians and their favorite pair of sneakers. While the performer traditionally overshadowed the sneakers, these designs place the latter directly under the spotlight.

Collaborating with Deckhub's founders, I employed research, prototyping, and testing to revamp the product's UI and information architecture, ensuring user's needs were at the heart of every design choice.
