Joneil exhibited a strong ability to analyze user feedback, identify pain points, and propose effective design solutions. Her approach was always research-driven, employing user interviews, usability testing, and other methodologies to inform her design decisions.
In addition, Joneil demonstrated great adaptability and collaboration skills. Joneil was always actively seeking feedback and incorporating it into her work. Not only that, Joneil possesses a strong work ethic and a genuine passion for user experience design.

It's nice to meet you!
I'm a Filipino-American product designer, storyteller, and strategist based in Chicago with 3 years of experience in UI/UX design. Before transitioning to design, I spent 4 years in media, producing and editing podcasts, and working in editorial and social media marketing.
Currently, I'm a UI/UX Designer at Soma Reality, an LA-based startup building an exciting new social digital community. I've worked on a range of projects, from designing features for our consumer-facing app, Halfgram, to creating internal tools to boost team productivity.
