Claudine Julien

Multimedia Designer

As a designer, one of my favorite parts about my career is being able to be a bridge -

a bridge between clients and their ideas, between users and their needs.

Being a facilitator in this way, has always been what I consider the best work of my life.

Whether I’m collaborating with teams to deliver engaging content, working through design iterations for a mural, or using gentle probing and authentic empathy to understand pain-points and materialize concepts and ideas - I’m steadily aiming to use my knowledge and experience to challenge myself regularly in ways that lead to designing user-friendly products.

I love experimenting with animation, stop motion, and augmented reality, as well as learning more about the human experience through connecting with people from different walks of life.

My goal is to join a focused team as a Multimedia UI/UX Designer where I can utilize my design skills and creativity to contribute to the company's success, and change the world through accessible tech and smart design.
