Visual and Graphic Designer currently working on her B.S. in Interaction Design at Santa Monica College. She integrates her creative methods from her previous background in art and computer science. She hopes to find the intersection of equity and design and how UI/UX design can change our current societal climate. Her multidisciplinary education is reflected in her approach to design whether it’s from using her empathy during user research or providing an outreach for various communities. Making the world more accessible and providing the design tools for success is a challenge she imposes on herself towards becoming the designer she is today.

Hello! I am Zoe Marin, a Product Designer in the making that is currently pursuing a BS in Interaction design at Santa Monica College. I apply human-centered principles in my design practice by cooperating along with the communities and users that utilize the experiences I create. I previously pursued a degree in design with a concentration on Graphic/Visual Design from the University of California, Davis. As a result, I am committed to integrating the intersection of both visuals and user-experience, therefore, strengthening the user's journey in navigating a digital space. What encourages me as a product designer are the stories and emotional connections I facilitate with others in the design process. Beyond my educational background I enjoy learning new design tools/methods to add onto my own tool belt or for my own personal fun as a designer! In my spare time I like to sew or alter my own clothes, admire my plant collection, and spend time with the people I cherish in my life. Otherwise, I am continuously pursuing my journey of growth as a person, which I apply towards my growth as a designer too.
