About Me
Artist first.
Designer always.
I'm Beauty Ray — a UX and visual designer with roots in fine art, illustration, and photography. I bring that creative instinct into every product I touch.

My Story
My foundation was the science of people. It began more analytical and then became more creative.
The path from there wasn't linear. There were pivots, detours, and chapters that didn't go the way I expected. But somewhere along the way, art became a constant, and eventually, so did design. Not as a departure from where I started, but as a natural extension of it.
UX gave me a language for what I'd always been doing intuitively: observing, questioning, and building things that actually fit the people meant to use them. The tools changed. The instinct didn't.
