About

My name is Carisa Coutinho and I am A UX Designer that strives to create modern designs that solves today’s problems.

I have recently graduated from Wilfrid Laurier University with an Honors Bachelor of Design Degree. Through this program I learnt I had a passion for User Experience Design. Since starting the program in 2019 I have gotten the chance to work on many amazing projects where I have utilized my creativity, empathy, and my love for design.  

Ever since childhood I have admired design and loved using my creativity to solve problems. This continued into high school where I discovered my love for graphic design. Now having graduated with a major in User Experience Design I look forward to utilizing my interaction design, user research, wire-framing and prototyping skills to create designs that solve modern problems.
