About Me.
Hey there! I’m Alysha Ross,
a Visual and Interaction Designer.
My background in design pairs well with my skills in illustration, web development, understanding of object orientated coding languages such as Python and 3D modelling. I've worked on many projects varying from game design, digital product design and branding. My designs focus on human-centered approaches, allowing me to empathize with my clients and create the best products, systems, or services for their needs. I love to explore the way people interact and play within digital and printed spaces to create powerful user experiences. When I'm not working, you’ll find me exploring the cool parts of Edmonton (mainly restaurants and the river valley), trying to learn new skills and coding languages or catching up on playing video games that I’ve had my eyes on. So, let’s chat and create a thing!
