LOG_01 - mymcie
I remember sitting in the living room, watching whatever happened to be on TV back when channels were still a thing. A movie was playing, "The Last Mimzy." There was an alien bunny, and I remember being drawn to its name, Mimzy. It stayed with me.
౨ৎ
Later on, I realized how closely it aligned with my own name. The first four letters of my full name form mymc, and adding ie felt natural. It extended the sound, softened it. mymcie became something I used quietly across games and social spaces, and it stayed with me longer than I expected.
౨ৎ
mymcie isn’t a mask. It’s a focused version of me, the designer part. It’s where I put my intent, my taste, and my vision. For now, I want to be seen through what I create, not through who I am outside of it.

LOG_02 - origin
I’ve always noticed small details. Even before I understood design, I understood expression. In middle school, I wore berets and clips, three on each side, and experimented with hairstyles. They were small choices, but they felt personal. I was quiet, but expressive.
౨ৎ
I didn’t like standing out, yet somehow I did. Over time, I noticed others quietly following. That taught me something early. Expression doesn’t have to be loud to be felt.
౨ৎ
I learned to follow what I genuinely liked, even if it placed me slightly outside the norm. I gravitated toward the alternative, not to reject others, but to stay aligned with myself. If that means certain paths won’t align with me, then they were never meant to.

LOG_03 - intention
I don’t design with ego. Most of what I create is something only I see at first. My portfolio is the only place where it fully exists.
౨ৎ
Still, when I look at my work, I feel awe. Not pride in perfection, but in realization. I made this, and it looks the way I imagined it.
౨ৎ
If someone uses my work, I want them to feel the intent behind it. Not just that it functions, but that it was made carefully, by someone who cared.

LOG_04 - difference
I don’t follow trends blindly. I understand their value. Trends introduce ideas and open doors, but they can also limit expression if followed without thought.
౨ৎ
I let trends inform me, not control me. I don’t want UI/UX to become another space where sameness is rewarded over meaning. In a world that often feels shallow, I believe it’s important to allow beauty to exist, even in interfaces.
౨ৎ
Especially in interfaces.

LOG_05 - observation
I design for details. I want things to be visually appealing, but never confusing. A design should guide you naturally, even if it’s the first time you’re using it.
౨ৎ
I care about clarity, responsiveness, and intention across devices. Aesthetic without usability is empty. Usability without care is forgettable.
౨ৎ
I design where both meet.

LOG_06 - future scenario
I want to be known as a designer with intent, someone whose work feels authored. Something you recognize before you read the name.
౨ৎ
I want to work with people who allow creative freedom, who value thought as much as output, and who believe beauty and function can coexist.
౨ৎ
I’m building toward that quietly.
