Majoring in Graphic Design, Minoring in User-Experience Design
Saginaw Valley State University, Class of 2025
From Saginaw, MI

As an aspiring Product/UX Designer, I believe that every user should have the best experience when using a digital product/service through websites, apps, and/or software. I design products with accessibility and inclusivity in mind while resonating with users' needs and emotions throughout the entire design process. Furthermore, I'm open-minded when collaborating with my project stakeholders (researchers, engineers, PMs, content strategists, etc.). I'm determined to create an experience that's not only enjoyable but usable, equitable, and accessible to users all across the globe.

Added by Tunisia

Tunisia Smith was recognized for winning a scholarship

The Roberts-Gilbertson Fellowship Program engages a select group of approximately 10 outstanding SVSU undergraduates from a wide range of disciplines for an entire academic year in three-hour weekly seminars, a year-long service project of their own creation, and interactions with campus and community leaders, culminating with an international travel experience. Exploring diverse cultures and perspectives is a hallmark of the program. The program has a strong focus on leadership from a global perspective, as well as on encouraging participants to pursue more ambitious professional goals than they might have previously considered. They find their experiences to be life-changing and inspiring as they enter graduate school and a broad range of careers.
