Laura Szymkowiak

Hello there! I'm Laura.

​​

I’m a designer and a graduate of DePaul University’s School of Design, where I focused my studies on graphic design, animation, and user experience design. I’m currently completing the Google UX Design Certificate to further strengthen my skills in user research, and designing experiences that are user-centered and accessible.
 

I enjoy creating, problem-solving, understanding people, and learning multiple roles to help get the job done. I’m especially interested in designing for people, or work that’s thoughtful, useful, and can make a positive impact in someone’s everyday life.​ Topics I'm the most drawn to focus on community, children, technology, and education. 

When I'm not designing, and away from the digital world of video games, social media, and the Internet, I am often found reading graphic novels and manga, or taking photos of the world around me.
