About me
My journey as a UX / UI Designer
I have worked in different industries, from printing and advertising to information technologies.
How it all started
My name is Julio César, I graduated as a Graphic Designer from the
University of Guadalajara, México. I have over 8 years of experience designing user interfaces, websites and branding.
My first experience with UX/UI related projects was at Integranet, a
small software company specialized in Windows-based applications. My participation required that I research about the users involved and empathize with them, so later, the UI could accomplish the task goal.
An overview to my experience
I have over 3+ years of experience using Sketch, Balsamiq mockups and Adobe XD with a strong knowledge in User Experience Design and Research. I can translate complex product requirements into easy and intuitive user flows.
I also have 6+ years of experience implementing the frontend features of Websites and Web-based software using HTML, CSS and JS. I conduct user research with internal and external users. I’m fluent creating user personas, card sorting, briefs and other discovery tools.
I am capable of translating concepts to create user flows, mind maps, wireframes, high-fidelity mockups, prototypes and documentation. I am familiar with design thinking, conducting user research, user interviews, rapid prototyping, heuristic reviews, usability and accessibility concerns.
I’ve been working 8+ with Adobe CC designing and creating brandings, from the stationery to the websites. I have a certificate of UX + UI software development at Thinc Institute.
I have strong organizational skills and ability to stay focused while managing multiple tasks concurrently. I am used to work with Agile Methodologies such as SCRUM and collaborating with other teammates (Product Managers, Designers and Developers) across time zones.
Besides I have 8+ years experience, guiding startups projects through a UXD process to reach a MVP as a UX consultant. Also, I have 2 years of experience leading a multidisciplinary team for a software design project.
