💪Skills and Strengths
My Neuro-exceptional talent
I have a natural knack to identify flaws and inconsistencies in products' visual designs, as well as spelling/grammar mistakes. From a UI/UX design point-of-view, identifying these flaws and brainstorming ways to resolve them is key not only to creating a user-friendly experience for any product from the start, but also to continuously improving upon existing designs.
