Jess Belle

About four years ago, I made the exciting move to Brisbane on a permanent resident visa. The vibrant city life, friendly people, and delicious coffee have truly made it feel like home.

I am a UI/UX Designer with over a decade of experience in creative direction, digital and graphic design for global brand campaigns across various platforms. My journey has allowed me to craft compelling brand collaterals and coordinate engaging online content. Transitioning to UI/UX design was a natural evolution for me, driven by my passion for digital design and my desire to create impactful, memorable user experiences.

In my previous roles, I honed my skills in empathy, proactivity, and teamwork. These experiences have equipped me with a deep understanding of both business and user needs, ensuring that goals are not just met but exceeded!

Let's create something amazing together!

My background

During my school years, I developed a passion for art and design, which led me to pursue a Bachelor's degree in Interior Design. This program helped me refine my design skills and learn key principles. To add a creative touch to my career, I then earned a Bachelor's degree in Visual Merchandising, which included exciting apprenticeships in Paris and London. These dynamic retail experiences, particularly in London, had a significant impact on my career and inspired me to move to the UK after graduation. This journey was a turning point in my life, driving my creativity and professional growth while also allowing me to improve my language skills and explore new aspects of visual design.

My Experiences

Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of collaborating with exceptionally skilled individuals. These experiences have greatly influenced my work ethic and artistic abilities. I am constantly seeking new opportunities to challenge myself.
