About Me

Hey there, I'm Aracxa! A UI designer who's all about making digital interfaces feel intuitive and look fantastic. Think user-friendly magic with a dash of visual flair. That's what I love to do!

For the past 5 years, I've been immersed in the world of user interface design, wielding tools like Figma and the Adobe Creative Suite to bring ideas to life. I also speak the language of front-end coding and love the power of Webflow to create dynamic interfaces. My focus is always on designing experiences that feel effortless and enjoyable for users. I've had the pleasure of shaping the UI for many websites over the years, including a really interesting hiring campaign site for Kawasaki. A cool moment was having a website I designed for a talented college musician get some recognition from the CSS Design Awards in the AIGA competition back in 2019 – always a good reminder of the impact thoughtful UI can have! I'm always eager to dive into new design challenges and collaborate on projects that put user-centered design at the forefront.
