Deep within my character is this innate need to learn new things and talk to different people. This is one of the many reasons User Experience appeals to me. Being able to actually communicate with people to build a better product. To find out how I can help make something that works better for them instead of just making something pretty and assuming it will work as intended.

Why does one choose to use Gmail over Yahoo, Medium over Blogger — if the features are 99% the same? It’s definitely not about disrupting usability standards. It’s about that additional layer of sophistication that can only be achieved when you put enough time and brainpower into the tiniest details, the most subtle animations, the most elegant transitions – not just for the sake of creating whimsical dribbble shots.
