Hello! I'm Magda, a graduate student pursuing a Master's in Information Experience Design at Pratt Institute. I graduated with honors from the University of California, Berkeley in 2020, holding a Bachelor's Degree in History of Art with a focus on neuroaesthetics—an exciting field delving into our brain's response to aesthetic experiences. My academic journey has fueled a persistent curiosity about how the human body interacts with information to guide decisions. Currently, I am focusing on studying personalization frontiers of design systems, understanding that the future takes into account our personal preferences and needs as users. I am committed to innovation, creativity, accessibility, and autolayout... I love autolayout.

Outside of UX, I continue designing. I enjoy crafting all types of things and often find myself learning new techniques such as woodworking, ceramics, screen printing and more. Here are links to some of my projects:
