Justin Catalano

Hello!

I am a design student with a strong focus on user experience and user interaction. I have always noticed the emotions that different experiences bring in my life and I've also seen the unique experiences that technology offers.

My goal is to serve as a bridge between cutting-edge technology and the fundamental needs of humanity. I am a firm believer in the principles of user-centered design and incorporate them into my work. With a genuine passion for visual design, I use my enthusiasm and precision to elevate human-computer interactions.

Currently, I study at San Jose State University, majoring in Design Studies with a specialization in Graphic Design. Additionally, I've chosen to pursue minors in Interaction Design and Human Systems Integration. This path has equipped me with the skills to excel as a visual designer, a comprehensive grasp on the essentials and applications of user experience and interaction, and insights into the psychology of human factors.
