Hi, I'm Kim Johnson
Your UX Designer & Researcher
From Texas
See My Work
Welcome to my online portfolio! My name is Kimberley Johnson and I live in Pearland, Texas.
I work at PetSmart as a Retail Sales Associate providing top-tier customer service to our pet parents.
While working, I'm also a graduate student attending Kent State University online pursuing a Master of Science in User Experience Design. I have a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Interactive Media Design from The Art Institute of Houston.
Back in the day, when Xanga and Myspace were popular, I created layouts which led me to the Web and Digital field. I am self-taught in creative software and web programming languages that I continue to utilize.
My experience in Web Design and Development includes working in the financial, marketing, beauty, and e-commerce industries.
I’m a team player, hard-working, steadfast, and thrive on new challenges. I believe these qualities make me a great fit for any company.
I greatly enjoy spending time with my family. My hobbies include Belly Dance and snuggling with my very talkative cat Dixie!
Current Goals: Graduate in Spring 2025, land a role as a UX Designer/Researcher, and learn Python.
