Hi, I’m Olivia Dennehy — a UX designer passionate about accessibility, user empathy, and thoughtful digital experiences.
From freelance cleints to award-winning hackathon projects, I’ve designed intuitive, responsive interfaces across web and mobile — with a focus on iOS and Material Design standards. I thrive on making technology more inclusive, blending solid user research with a strong eye for accessible design. Whether I’m presenting to teams or prototyping user flows, I bring energy, clarity, and a deep commitment to creating experiences that truly serve the people who use them.
Yikes! This is one of my first Javascript websites in a freshman year class project. It features moveable text, textboxes, hoverable color-changing text, and my enthusiasm for orange.
I was brand new to web design in this era. I was still focused on becoming a developer. My passion for the UX/UI field started to grow from here.
Enel is company that creates innovation solutions for the energy sector. There, I was tasked with maintaining the most comprehensive Figma Design Library I've ever seen. I also assisted in designing the Beta version of a new comprehensive sales tool "Optima".
Worked with a local politician to establish a high-impact visual identity from the ground up. The aim was to create a design that is simple and professional yet bold enough to stand out against conventional competitors. We explored various concepts, including this emblem inspired by the iconic arched US House & Senate seating arangement flipping.
