Academy Xi - UX Design CertificateResume

Hello, I'm Emily! I love creativity, hold a vast amount of curiosity, and am passionate about understanding human behaviour.

Coming from an unconventional design background in Film, TV + theatre, over the past eight years I've gained solid experience with design processes, and understanding what motivates people.

Working in immersive events, brand activations and conferences has allowed me to further question human interaction at its best.
‍
I'm a bubbly person who loves being around people, and constantly throw myself at new challenges as this is what keeps me motivated! Curiosity is power.

‍I love to draw, paint and animate! Below is a fun journey of my experience over the years:

My values

Love our home

I absolutely adore planet Earth. Being outside grounds us, supports creativity, and instills perspective. Passionate about sustainability and conservation, I'm an active ProtectOurWinters and National Parks enthusiast.

Team building

I'm a strong advocate for building strong rapport with your teammates, and learning from them. It's a way to gain invaluable workplace trust, meaning efficient and successful work.

Be yourself, and do what you love. I believe true creativity flows when you're confident in yourself and your abilities. Be your own superhero!

Stay curious

If you don't keep learning, how will you grow? Respecting other people's opinions and beliefs, and listening and learning to the world around makes me feel humbled.
