HELLO...

And welcome to my portfolio! I'm Teodora, a third year interactive design student a James Madison University studying to become a user experience designer. I was born in Bosnia and spent most of my childhood traveling and experiencing the world through the eyes of the cultures around me. My past experiences have led me to learn how to develop for the individual, not only the user. My minor in sociology helps me bridge the gap between humanity and technology in everything that I design.

I recently completed an international internship with Talent Courtyard, a wellness agency, where I redesigned webpages, created content, helped rebrand online platforms and completed platform research. I look forward to future opportunities where I can apply my coursework and knowledge!
