Who is Sear, and why is he a UX/UI Designer?

My passion for graphic design started at seven years old, on Microsoft Paint. A few years later I found Adobe Photoshop 7.0, and it became the thing I rushed home for, spending every afternoon after school teaching myself to tell stories through images.

That passion stayed with me quietly for years while I earned a bachelor's degree in computer science. Then in 2017, an internship at AKAH, a non-profit organization, changed everything. It showed me that the hobby I loved could become a real career, and the two paths I had been walking, design and engineering, finally became one.

Today, with over four years of experience as a software engineer behind me, I design with both sides of that story in mind. I care about work that feels human and effortless to use, without ever losing the comfort people deserve, and my technical background lets me shape designs that are not just beautiful, but genuinely buildable.
