Based in Chicago, IL
hello! I am a UX/UI & visual designer in Chicago, IL. I began my career as a visual designer/art director, and transitioned to more UX heavy work as a freelancer. My ability to visualize how things will look has helped me to understand how things will work as well. In my free-time I salsa dance, draw cook & paint. Looking forward to meeting y'all! -M

“Michaella is an awesome mentor! She is very friendly, helpful, and has been a great support for me throughout my course. She has given me lots of tips and extra resources that have helped me to become a better designer. I have also managed to gain more insights into the UX/UI fields. I'd love to have her as my mentor again if I sign up for the UX Academy!”
