About

Hi, I’m Shari Catalan a UX/UI designer with a background in healthcare setting and customer service. I am family oriented so when I’m not working on design projects I’m either driving to a sports event, cheering a loved one on their fitness goals, or trying to meet my reading goal for the year. (I always fall short, but I still try) I’ve worked in Nutrition Services at a hospital for about 9 years, and what I’ve learned there is doing our part and working with other departments with a common goal of giving the best care to our patients. To me that transfers over to UX/UI design by working well, communicating, and doing our part for the team to better the user experience or meeting business goals. I like UX/UI design because it's a chance for me to help users, and improve business while also using my creative. I like the combination of psychology, visual aesthetic, backed by research.The environment I am looking for is a user driven company working together to better enjoy their experience. I want to be part of progressive change and help their business grow and build their customer loyalty. I want to explore different ways to balance both the user’s interest and the business.

When not working on Ux/UI design projects

You can find me trying new hobbies. I am currently re-learning how to roller skate. I enjoy working on crafts like door wreaths, my most proud creation was a Grinch theme. Ask me about my personal pursuit on the best tacos al pastor in the mid-west/east coast.
