About Jada Matthews

Thank you for wanting to know more about me! While at the University of Florida, I found my interest in behavioral analysis, but I always kept my passion for tech strong. As UF pioneered the AI initiative, I gained my certificate in AI Fundamentals, which helped me understand the importance of ethical and sustainable technological practices in our society and get a head start on the AI transformation of the job force. After graduation, I enrolled in Avocademy, a UX/UI Foundations course that teaches me the fundamentals of UX design, UI design, and UX research. With this course, I can apply my knowledge from my psychology degree and AI certificate to a field that works with the interaction between people and the ever-changing digital environment. Since gaining my UX Design Certificate, I have worked on client projects, bringing their ideas to life with intuitive designs, prioritizing accessibility, bridging design-to-development gaps, and fostering seamless user engagement.
