About Me

Hello there

Hello, my name is Samuel.
I’m a user experience designer.

I’m pursuing a career in the field of UI/UX Design because I'm deeply passionate about technology and how it profoundly changes our way of living.

The process of turning an idea into a viable product gives me great satisfaction. Being a self-starter, I’m highly motivated staying up-to-date with the latest technology, industry practice and design trends.
