Explore my portfolio: ashleykimdesigns.com Plant mom by day, stress-baker by night, and a UX Designer and Researcher by passion. I’m a Senior UX Designer & Researcher with 5+ years of experience creating intuitive, user-friendly designs grounded in human-centered research. With a background in psychology and a focus on human factors, I bring a research-driven approach to solving complex problems and designing experiences that truly resonate with people. Curious and empathetic, I see challenges as opportunities to learn and grow. I get excited when uncovering friction points through user research, missing puzzle pieces waiting to be solved. I believe every interaction, from UX work to collaboration and presentation, is part of the overall user experience. With strengths in research, critical analysis, and communication, I am confident in my ability to contribute meaningfully to any design and research project.

Hey there! I'm Jason Longsworth, your go-to guy for web and graphic design from sunny Los Angeles, California. My love for the arts started in high school, thanks to a fantastic newspaper course that hooked me to Photoshop. It's been an amazing ride ever since, dabbling in everything from print and mobile designs to national ads, killer presentations, augmented reality adventures, sleek websites, logos, and so much more. For me, design is all about making meaningful connections, diving deep into the challenges faced by users or clients, and crafting creative solutions that hit the mark.
