In my own words
— JulianneMy name is Julianne Shearer, and I’m an Instructor's Assistant currently through General Assembly's Visual Design remote courses.
I provide technical knowledge for industry-led design programs and creating visually compelling and functional design. It's rewarding to provide technical knowledge and industry insight to ultimately empower students to create designs more effectively!
In my spare time, I focus on building product features and creating case studies for app product/ service experiences.
Ultimately, what I enjoy most is the opportunity to use creative thinking to inspire effective research, develop strong design ideas, and effectively implement them.
Research Tools Used: SurveyMonkey Google Docs Validately Pen + Paper
Findings + Site-Mapping Tools Used: Asana Miro OG sticky notes!
Design + Prototyping Tools Used: Figma Sketch InVision/ Invision Studio
Meeting new people and building relationships is when I shine brightest! I'm a visual and hands-on learner, and I thrive when I'm in an open-minded environment. I definitely perform well when having the freedom to explore in a changing, flexible atmosphere.
