Nicholas Wong | UX Designer

My Work

I am currently looking for work and live in Naperville, IL.
From July 2019 to April 2024, I was employed as a Systems Software Analyst (UX Designer) at Northrop Grumman in Huntsville, AL.
I had an active security clearance, and due to the sensitive nature of my work, I am unable to display screens or other artifacts associated with my projects.

The phenomenon known as the "4th grade slump" contributes to a decline in reading among children aged 8-12. During this crucial period of learning, students often experience burnout and lose interest in reading, resulting in decreased reading comprehension, engagement, and activity. Failure to address this issue can have severe consequences on future academic achievement.
