Why i’m sharing my design journey here.
Why i’m sharing my UXD
journey here.
April 26, 2025
I wasn’t planning to study UX design. i just kept following the questions that wouldn’t leave me alone. Like - what makes something feel right? Why do i trust this, but not that? How can design speak to someone before words do?
My background is in marketing and communication. But for a longtime i found myself quietly noticing the stuff underneath all the messaging. The feeling of it all. Over the last five years, i’ve been circling this space between psychology and design. Not formally and not always confidently. But persistently. Reading books, articles. Watching, observing, sensing. Turning ideas over in my head. Following that same curiosity into lengthy conversations, reflections, and rabbit holes that seem to never end.
It took me a while to realize this thing i was circling had a name: UX. And i’m not here to claim it like a title. I’m here to practice it. To let it become part of how i see, how i listen, how i shape. Because the more i learn, the more i realize that UX isn’t just a skillset. It’s a kind of attention. It’s care that lives in the details. It’s presence. More than anything, it reminded me that design is personal. And when it’s done well, it reaches that unconscious part of you that softens or shifts or says yes without knowing why. It becomes something more. It becomes a kind of language. It inspires. Whatever it is. Big or small. To me, UX is a reflection of how i want to live. With intentionality and curiosity. with a deep respect for the invisible things that shape me.
So for now, I’ll be sharing this journey here. As i learn and build this site. And not necessarily in a polished voice. Just an honest documentation of the unfolding.
currently exploring:
Designing for emotion and clarity
Microinteractions in Framer
Why intuitive experiences often feel spiritual
How slowness can be a feature, not a flaw
