Available to hire
Hey there! I’m Shirley Justice, broadcasting from the Windy City. I’m a sci‑fi geek who loves exploring the evolving universe of design, technology, and human interaction—and I’m thrilled to be part of this creative journey. My background spans fine arts, graphic and interactive design, and over a decade in the design realm, where I fuse research, usability, visual storytelling, and human psychology to craft experiences that engage and inspire. I’m passionate about Lean UX, turning brand personas into visually dynamic, immersive storytelling, and making UX and IDX the heartbeat of every project. Let’s build something stellar, together!
