Velixio's Profile Picture
~Velixio
Rick McCaffrey
Artist | Professional | Design & Interfaces
United States
Award-winning user experience architect and design consultant with the natural ability to solve complex business problems and an extensive, successful history doing so.

Proficient in Expression Blend, Microsoft Office, and Adobe Creative Suite (CS5). Windows (Metro UI) experience and Apple's (HIG) standards for OSX.

Starting my design journey at sixteen, I am proud to say that I did not take any classes in high school relating to art/digital design. Completely self-taught, both from a consultant and creative view.

By 10th grade, I created/managed two online design communities, both having close to 6,000 users on the forums and design blog. Having integrated a few of my designs into the forum script - I learned a bit of coding as well. The goal was to help upcoming designers bridge the gap between designing for fun and taking the step up as a designer in the industry.

Before graduating high school, I passed up multiple agency offers and ended up studying Criminal Justice to be a tactical officer. Years later, I returned to the design industry for user experience and the rest is history.

I am definitely glad to be back in the scene too. There has been a lot going on lately and it gave me time to think this is really what I plan to do for my career.

I am waiting for an answer for my enrollment to the Art Institute in Los Angeles. =]

Also, thank you for your support. I will try my best to constantly raise the quality of my work.

Thanks again,
vX

Why would you spam my page with a question mark? At least take the time to type out a few letters.

Pointless in meaning. =[
