About me
Hey there! I'm Elisa Franz, a UX/UI designer in the making, with a background in Japanese studies and a soft spot for meaningful design.
Japanese Studies
I studied Japanese language, culture, and economics because I've always been curious about how people communicate and think across different systems.
