My name is José Carlos Martínez and I am a UI & UX designer and digital enthusiast living in Málaga (Spain). This is my personal portfolio, where I share some of my artwork and other personal projects.
Everyone has hobbies and I am no exception. In my free time I like playing video games, watching movies and having fun with my family or friends.
I love working on design projects with other people (Designers, Developers, QAs, Project Managers, etc.) because they help me all time to make things happen.
I studied graphic design but I was really attracted by UI in websites since I have had access to the internet. My first intention was to learn about 3D modeling and create video games but I couldn’t study it, then all my work was oriented to web design and UI.
I started working as web designer for a few design and marketing companies where I learnt a lot about design managing projects. It was a very productive period because I had the opportunity to work for many clients from different sectors and with differing needs.
Most of the time I worked on websites, branding, merchandising, etc. for the same client. However, I always wanted to concentrate my knowledge and efforts on interfaces.
The market was changing and new projects weren’t so attractive for me, therefore two years ago I decided to start working as a freelancer in Málaga. The experience was really good but I prefer to work in a company within a team where I could learn more, have some stability and grow professionally for UI and UX. I still do some freelance work eventually when I have the opportunity and the time.
After of several years, I learned that nothing is achieved without effort and being afraid of change, so I decided to seek new horizons and started to do UI design for video games.
I always try to be better and improve my skills because I want to be as good a professional as I can. I am still learning new things on a daily basis that help me to move a little bit forward.
