Boris Boulogne - Creative technologist

Professional Summary

I'm a Creative technologist with 6+ years of experience working across product design, UX/UI, and frontend development. I love taking a ideas from the visual and UX side all the way through to the final implementation with strong focus on polished interfaces, interaction, animation and responsive experiences. More recently, I've also been getting deeper into creative development with Three.js, GLSL and Blender, which is something I'm particularly excited about. I really enjoy the space where design, technology and visual experimentation meet.
