U X / U I & G R A P H I C DESIGN PORTFOLIO

Hi I’m Janice, a recent graduate in Communication and Multimedia Design from the University of Applied Sciences Amsterdam.
With a strong passion for visual storytelling and a sharp eye for design, I love turning creative ideas into engaging, user-centered experiences. During my studies, I discovered my interest in User Experience Design, which quickly grew into a full-fledged passion. I now see myself as a UX designer with a deep appreciation for visual and graphic design.
Beyond work, I enjoy personal growth through fitness, baking, gaming with friends, and exploring new cities and cultures.
​
I'm currently open to new opportunities in UX, visual design, or related creative roles. Let’s connect!
