About me – Portfolio

I didn't start out in UX; I started by designing things that had to work.

Hi, I'm Joran!

In high school, I took a woodworking course, where I learned technical drawing, designed furniture in both 2D and 3D, and even programmed CNC machines. That's where I developed a structured way of thinking: how things are built, how they function, and how everything fits together.

Later, I switched to applied computer science. Although programming itself wasn't quite my thing, it did give me a good understanding of how digital products work.

That combination eventually led me to digital design, where I found the perfect balance between logic, structure, and creativity. Through UI and UX, I realized that this is where I want to focus my efforts.

About me

Clear Priorities

I efficiently prioritize tasks by importance and can immediately see what requires immediate attention.

Communication

I can effectively communicate ideas and collaborate with team members to achieve common goals.

Problem Solving

I approach challenges with a systematic and creative mindset, finding innovative solutions.

Reliable Team Player with an Eye for Quality

I take responsibility for my work and place great importance on quality and clear communication. I collaborate purposefully with developers and stakeholders to deliver strong products.

Meticulous and Structured Designer

I work in an organized manner and pay close attention to detail. Through a structured approach, I ensure consistent designs and smooth collaboration within the team.

User-Centered Problem Solver

I analyze user needs and translate insights into practical and well-thought-out solutions. I strive to create clear, user-friendly, and consistent experiences.

Understanding people

What attracts me most to UX is understanding how people interact with products and where things go wrong. I naturally analyze interfaces whether it's a website, an app, or even a game. When something feels off, I immediately start questioning why.

Solving problems

I'm especially driven by fixing frustrating experiences: unclear flows, unnecessary steps, and inconsistencies that break the user's trust. My goal is to grow into a UX-focused product designer who builds solutions based on research and real user insights not assumptions.

Growing as a designer

As I'm starting my career, I'm actively focused on building experience through projects and continuously improving my portfolio. I see this phase as an opportunity to refine how I think, work, and solve problems as a designer.
