Hi, I'm Leonie Almeida!

I'm a UI/UX Designer based in Houston, TX, dedicated to creating clean, intuitive, and user-centered digital experiences. With expertise in responsive web design and frontend development, I thrive on blending visual aesthetics with psychological insights to craft efficient, engaging interfaces.

My journey into design began with a UI/UX bootcamp, where I discovered my passion for crafting meaningful solutions that balance creativity and functionality. Since then, I've built projects like Seedly, BANQ, and Cookly, applying user research/psychology, wireframing, and prototyping to bring ideas to life.

With a background in Community Health and Psychology, I bring an empathy-driven approach to design, ensuring that every decision is grounded in user needs and behavior. My experience in telemarketing, sales, and healthcare has sharpened my communication, problem-solving, and research skills, all of which play a crucial role in designing intuitive experiences. Additionally, my love for photography enhances my creativity and strengthens my eye for aesthetics, further enriching my work.

Outside of design, you can find me experimenting with new ideas, exploring nature, capturing moments through photography, or spending time with my two dogs—Tiger, my Chow Chow, and Max, my poodle mix.
