I’m happy to help. I have a deep empathy for people, community, and the environment. I strive daily to make a positive difference in this world, wherever I can. I have been designing digital products ever since customizing my first high-school Livejournal page. I am a former 4th grade school teacher with a background working in museums, archaeology and art history. In those fields I regularly encountered ways that technology was both a help and a hinderance to the people who used it. Helping to ease the burden ineffective technology can have on others has been a constant theme throughout my work history, therefore I felt a natural and immediate inclination towards UX|UI Design. https://vidatorres.work/lets-work-together daily 0.75 2020-10-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8116e2271b5c68ed93ac40/1603481047433-Y7X5GPN1FRXX71M2HNR8/IMG_1177+DPShadow.png Let's Work Together -
