About Me

Hi there! I’m Priya Ankumar, and I’m excited to share a bit about myself with you on this page. Think of it as a little chat where I let you in on who I am and what I love. Can’t wait to connect!

My Expertise:

I specialize in prototyping, creating wireframes, conducting user research, and testing designs to enhance accessibility and usability. I have a solid foundation in HTML and CSS, and I’m proficient in a range of tools including Adobe Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, XD, Indesign), Figma, Canva, WIXStudio, and Squarespace. I'm continuously exploring new software and techniques to stay at the cutting edge of UX design.

Project Highlight:

One of my proudest achievements was the Neroli Cosmetics project, where I developed a minimal web design prototype from scratch. This project allowed me to hone my skills in everything from conducting interviews and user testing to crafting detailed wireframes and sitemaps.

My Philosophy:

I believe that UX design is more than just creating visually appealing interfaces; it’s about making real differences in people's lives—whether through improving accessibility or bringing a small business’s digital presence to life. My goal is to create designs that not only look great but also function seamlessly for users.Looking Ahead: I am eager to join a team as an Associate or Junior UX Designer where I can contribute and grow. I’m looking for opportunities to work on diverse projects that challenge me and expand my understanding of what great design can achieve.

Beyond Design:

Outside of work, I’m an ambivert who loves diving into the latest Stephen King mystery or enjoying a peaceful walk in the park. My curiosity about the world fuels my creativity, inspiring me to explore and incorporate diverse cultural perspectives into my designs.

These are some of my favorite things:

My favorite Disney character is Merida from Brave because of her mindset to have the life she wanted and being able to be herself. My second favorite character would have to be Ember from Elemental for the same reason and always wanting to make sure that her family is okay but still going out and making her dreams come true.

For it’s simple beauty the lotus flower would have to be my favorite flower. Known to grow on lily pads and can blossom in different colors such as pink, white, yellow, red, and purple. Offering it to be a flower of variety.

My favorite aesthetic would have to be when it’s raining, and there’s thunder and next to my partner and we watch a movie or cook a comfort food.

It’s being able to have that cozy feeling and feeling at home at the same time.  

Thank you for visiting my portfolio. I look forward to the opportunity to collaborate and create something amazing together!
