Hello! I’m name is Caitlyn Hain, and I believe that as a designer, I have the ability and responsibility to make an impact on people’s lives.

I am passionate about creating meaningful experiences through the lens of a UX/UI mindset and methodologies. With experience in both design and basic front-end development, I seek to build creative solutions that are accessible, inclusive, and memorable.
