Overview

For the path to a career in UX design, I attended Google UX Design Course on Coursera. The  certificate consists of seven practical courses and students have to complete side projects to earn certificate.

Leap News App

One of my side projects, Leap News app, aims to provide trust and latest news for people around the world. It delivers digital reading experience and targets well educated customers who usually absorb new knowledge through the media. The goal in this project is to allows users to easily browse the news and articles.
