About

I'm RJ Narvasa - a Filipino kid in SoCal who enjoys learning new crafts and listening to other people's stories. In June 2020, UC San Diego sent me an off-white paper that says B.S. Cognitive Science with Spec. in Design & Interaction.

I was the solo UX/UI designer for smartboost on the weekdays and a freelance designer for MoodCloud and PPE4ALL on the weekends (emphasis on "free"). I like opportunities with people who give back to their community - especially small businesses. When I'm not designing, I'm usually eating, exploring new places, or picking up a new hobby.
