Hello, my name is Stephen Hannon. I am an 18 years old designer from Blackburn, UK.

I love everything that has to do with web design, user interface design and graphic design.

I am very passionate about my work.

Aspiring UX Designer

Stephen Hannon

Ever since the age of 14, I have always had a deep interest and passion for UX Design. My rst big project came during

high school, where I created a site for children between the ages of 8 and 12. This gave me the chance to really test my

skills, as the site needed to be as easy to use as possible. The use of audio feedback and large, clearly clickable buttons

helped to draw users to key areas.

In my spare time, I love to keep up to date with trends and to search for inspiration through sites such as Dribble, as well as

by following agencies like Creativedash and Cuberto. I am also currently teaching myself HTML and CSS both through

college courses and Codecademy. When creating sites and mapping out my UX's, I prefer to use Adobe Photoshop, which I college courses and Codecademy. When creating sites and mapping out my UX's, I prefer to use Adobe Photoshop, which I

have been using for over 4 years now. I am very comfortable with Photoshop, and this helps me to quickly mock up and

create my ideas. I then move onto Sublime Text to actually code the sites, although with my limited coding knowledge, I am

not as ecient in this area as I one day wish to be.

working/relaxing on the other. This allows me to quickly and eciently design through multitasking, as well as being handy

for any spontaneous ideas that I may have. The key thing that draws me into UX design is the way that you can alter and

manipulate the way a user reads information, purely by changing layouts or design aspects, and without a user ever even

noticing.

the work teaching myself new techniques and methods and also reading up on the latest design trends and tools. Since I

had a lot of free time me and a friend decided to co-create an online design team called SK Concept, from this we created

our own brand and gained a small client base, one of which is now an award winning lm production company called

Northreel.

cient coder.
