"Yep, the name’s real - Junior Smats. Might sound unique? That’s because it is. A little quirky, kinda catchy, and totally me. 'Smats' might not be in any dictionary, but for me, it’s a tribute to my roots - a legacy carried from my dad’s name."
I’m a passionate UI/UX designer with 4 years of experience, transitioning from a development background. Though I started my career as a developer, it became clear that my creativity was better expressed through design. That passion shifted my path toward UI/UX, where I focus on crafting intuitive, user-friendly interfaces using Figma and research-driven design improvements.
With a strong understanding of both design and development, I bridge the gap between creativity and functionality. My expertise includes wireframing, prototyping, and user research - ensuring every design decision is backed by usability insights. Proficient in Figma and front-end technologies, I create seamless, interactive designs while optimizing the design-to-development workflow.
I thrive on building engaging digital experiences that enhance usability and accessibility. Currently, I’m focused on mastering web application design, driven by a deep understanding of both user needs and the latest design trends.
