Welcome to my Portfolio!

My name is Sofia Grytsenko and I am a user experience (UX) designer who loves simplifying complex technological experiences.

I am an alumni of the Human-Centered Computing (HCC) major and Web Development and Psychology minors from Rochester Institute of Technology.

Through my major, I have gained an advanced understanding of user flows, wireframing,
and prototyping. I am passionate about understanding how these designs could be applied.
Web Development advanced my understanding of back-end coding languages and system architecture.

Below is a slideshow of my design and coding projects.To see more details and
projects visit any of the other pages.
