I’m Claire 👋
Strengths: Telling funny stories, thrifting, identifying sharks, being stopped in street to sign a survey
Weaknesses: Smirking in awkward situations, messing up idioms, spending money in museum gift shops
I am currently pursuing a Masters in Creative Computing and AI at University of the Arts London. After graduating cum laude from Fordham University in Engineering Physics with a minor in Digital Design, I knew I would return to study something that blends my love for STEM and the arts. This program is helping me grow into a full-stack designer.
UX and Product Design feel like the perfect intersection of my passions for problem solving and aesthetics. I love creating seamless and empathetic experiences for people using digital platforms that drive positive impact for the environment or others.
Outside of design, I freelance as a photographer and offer a full creative service. I handle everything from concept development and creative direction to styling, location planning, shooting, and expert photo editing. Whether it is a carefully designed photoshoot or a live event, I love shaping a strong visual story from start to finish. I began in fashion but my love for music led me to work with musicians on concerts, promo shoots, and cover art. Helping artists bring their vision to life and capturing special moments is one of my favorite things to do.
With my tech background I also enjoy creating posts and building fun apps for creative expression. At the core, my passions always come back to creativity, problem solving, and making a positive difference.
