Available to hire
Hi! My name is Mandy, and I am currently a Cognitive Science major with a specialization in Design & Interaction at UCSD. I’ve been creating art for over 10 years, ranging from simple doodles to digital designs to photography. As of now, I am focused on developing my design skills in interactive media and UX/UI design. No matter the media, I desire to keep improving and create work that feels real, intentional, and thoughtfully made.
