Nice to meet you!

UX Designer. Daydreamer.

Nice to see you here! I'm Emme (em-ee) Enojado (ee-no-ha-dough), a Senior Experience Designer at Slalom Build, from Houston, TX and based in Boston, MA (yes, I swapped extreme heat for extreme cold). I have an affinity for bookstores, almond croissants, and script typefaces.

‍Here's my backstory: Ever since I was a child, I found joy in art and creativity, immersing myself in hobbies like drawing, writing, and drafting up cool inventions and architecture plans. However, I also had an innate curiosity for the world inside each of our heads: the human brain. I was - and still am - deeply interested in uncovering the scientific mysteries of the human brain, figuring out what drives us and what influences our actions and behaviors. Thus, I chose neuroscience & psychology when I entered BU, but felt that the creative side of me was missing its flame. During my sophomore year of college, I spontaneously signed up for an Adobe Creative Jam competition, introducing me to the world of UX Design. I quickly fell in love as it combined all that I was interested in: human behavior, design, business, and technology. Since then, I've self-learned prototyping tools and all that I could learn about UX.

I've been grateful with the opportunities I've had to grow my design, project management, and people skills. From shaping the design of a new product for clients to building Boston University's design community, there's so much I've learned and it only makes me eager to learn more!

Runner + Fitness Enthusiast

I have a passion for embarking on athletic endeavors, from marathons to getting humbled at [solidcore].


Life goal: run all the World Marathon Majors!

Reader + Writer

I'm an avid reader, and I’ve also adored the art of writing since a young age. To practice writing again, I recently started a Substack called Emme's Journals, where I unearth artifacts from my childhood journals and write reflective essays & modern day musings on them.

Content Creator

I share snippets of design, life, and fashion on social media! I love cultivating community and sharing knowledge through these platforms, and am constantly inspired by the power of the digital world.

Accomplishments & activities

Design mentorship & outreach

Contribute to growing the design community as a corporate event organizer/sponsor and speaker for student design organizations. (Design mentors contributed to so much of my growth when I was just starting to learn about UX and the job hunt. I love giving back to share my learnings and help the future generation of designers - please reach out to me if you ever want to chat!)
