Get To Know Me 🤩

My favorite saying in the design world is by Fred Beecher, the Director of UX at The Nerdery. He says, “How do I explain what I do at a party? The short version I say is I humanize technology.”

Recently, I find myself saying the same thing.

Who is Liya Patel?

Born and raised in Atlanta, GA.

I graduated from Georgia State University in August 2022 with my B.B.A. in Digital Marketing along with a Minor in Business Law.

I recently completed my internship with Safe-Guard Products Intl. as a D2C UX Designer.

So, what drove you to a creative and tech field?

I realized I create “outside-the-box" solutions to my daily life problems. I am always looking for ways to make things more effective, so why not let it be my career?

Fusing my marketing background to user-centered design principles, I create intentional design that leaves an impact on the one person that matters the most to any organization: the user.

This coupled with my design skills, I found my passion for the UX Design field.

Where can I find you outside of work?

On the weekends, you will find me outside with my dogs trying a new restaurant or brewery. Or you will find us on a hike somewhere in North Georgia.

If it’s raining, I will be curled up on my couch with my iPad drawing and sketching designs for my friends small businesses. Typically, I will have a Shondaland production show running in the background for background noise, since I have already watched them all.

My friends describe me as creative, ambitious, and empathetic.
