Hey there, guys! I'm Nadine Grant – a gal who's all about User Experience, storytelling, and making things pop with creativity. I've got a knack for diving into challenges and making users smile with solutions that really hit the spot.
With more than 5 years in the game, I've been working my magic in the realms of UX, Design & Education. working at places like Ogilvy, IDEO, Made by Many, The Dots, and Capita – you name it, I've rocked it.
Right now, I'm on the hunt for remote freelance gigs – so if you need some UX wizardry, you know who to call! Oh, and guess what? I've just finished levelling up my skills with a masters course in Human Computer Interaction Design. I'm a girl a mission.
And yes, I've got a stylish twist: I'm dyslexic by design. So if you spot any quirky typos, just roll with the creative flow!
