Hello hello! My name is Nika Faith Ablao and I'm an aspiring UX Designer & Researcher based in sunny San Diego, California. I'm a new college graudate from Cornell University in Ithaca, New York with a B.A. in Information Science with a triple concentration in UX, Design Culture & Production, and Data Science and a minor in Business.
I'm a designer because while I see technology as a tool with the immense potential to simplify and augment our lives, I also believe that, inversely, it has the power to confuse and overwhelm. By combining clean designs that reflect our expectations of the real world with a thorough understanding of the audience, I aim to create beautiful, yet straightforward interactions that afford enjoyable user experiences.
When I'm not searching for the perfect font or mapping out the ideal user flow, you can find me doodling in my bullet journal, coloring too many things pink, practicing hand lettering, playing rugby, or playing my ukulele.
