My name is Shantia and I'm a 26-year-old Digital Content Strategist from Toronto, Canada.

 

I started my UX/UI career by actually pursuing journalism, which wasn’t intentional but at the time, has taught me so much about human interactions, especially interactions involving design, communication and technology.

 

I later discovered my true passion was solving problems through accessible design!

 

Don't get me wrong I still love writing, but advocating for better and accessible design is my true calling. 

​

Having previous experience with journalism has taught me transferable skills that I can use with confidence. 

I transitioned to a career in UX/UI because naturally,  I am venturesome and compassionate and will design for users to have experiences that are creative, fascinating and stress-free.

I aim to be a designer-advocate who puts people first, while also providing satisfaction to companies looking to bring users these experiences.

​

When I'm not thinking about design or daydreaming of my next solo trip, I like to spend my time reading, exploring the city, working on my tennis skills, and binge-watching my favourite shows! 

 

I can't wait to share my journey with you,
