About Me
Atlanta, Georgia, USA
Hi, I’m Michael Parkin, a masters student at Georgia Tech pursuing a degree in Human-Computer Interaction, specializing in UX Design. Prior to my master's, I earned a degree in Digital Arts from the University of the Witwatersrand, one of the top universities in Sub-Saharan Africa.
Through all of this I then discovered my passion for crafting exceptional user experiences. From UX design, to front-end development, and even game design. As such, I'm excited to delve deeper into the field and to work alongside like-minded individuals to create innovative, accessible, and engaging digital experiences.
Beyond the design world you'll often find me immersed in board games, video games, and capturing moments through photography.
