Intro

The days I look forward to the most are the days filled with great design, quality time with my friends and family, music, and art.

Like my family’s legacy,

I have always harboured a deep curiosity for the knowledge to design and build things that help the community around me.

I am fortunate enough to have been born in an era where much of humanity's knowledge is at my fingertips.

The concept of minimalism and ritual also influences my journey through design allowing me to simplify my life and make room for the things that matter.

To design meaningful things:

1. It is important to understand people’s needs and place yourself in their shoes.

2. Above all else, it must be beautiful and easy to understand.

UX FOundations

Human Computer Interaction

Understanding how users interact with digital interfaces is integral to creating beautiful experiences.

Jakob's Law

Users have developed expectations of digital platforms based on their cumulative experiences. Products can provide a better experience by leveraging existing design conventions and patterns.

Cognitive Load Theory

Cognitive load refers to the amount of working memory the human brain uses to process and store information. When designing more-complex solutions for users, it's important to consider how it might impact cognitive load.

Gamification

The application of game design mechanics and theory to user interface elements to create more engaging and enjoyable experiences.

Educational Design

Designing elements intended for education requires a seperate set of concerns aimed at addressing the primary learning types: visual, auditory, read/write, and kinaesthetic.
