My internship at AMD was an invaluable experience where I deepened my UX design and product development skills, especially for a user base that I can greatly relate to, as an avid gamer myself! By working on diverse projects ranging from designing for software optimization to enhancing user interactions, I gained valuable experience in improving both functionality and user engagement. I developed a strong understanding of the full design process, from research and wireframing to prototyping and testing, and collaborated effectively with cross-functional teams and adapted designs based on feedback. This experience has prepared me to contribute meaningfully to future UX and product design projects in a fast-paced, dynamic, and innovative environment.
