Jestin Antony

UI/UX Designer

A glimpse of me

Greetings! I'm Jestin Antony, originally from "Gods own country" Kerala, India. My passion for software led me to pursue computer science engineering, where I honed different skills including, programming languages such as Python, C, Java and iOS development with SwiftUI.

After graduating, I joined Infosys, where I thrived in a dynamic environment, collaborating with teams worldwide, notably on projects for Bank of America. Through these experiences, I discovered my love for UI/UX design.

Driven by this passion, I embarked on a journey to the USA to pursue a professional degree in UI/UX. Now, in my final semesters, I'm eagerly growing and evolving into the designer I aspire to be✨
