About me

Julius Patto

Hi, I’m Julius Patto, a UX Designer and Michigan State alum with a dual background in Experience Architecture and Professional Writing.

Growing up in an Iraqi household, I experienced firsthand how traditional design often overlooks immigrant and non-English speaking communities. This perspective drives my passion for inclusive art direction: I don’t just design for usability; I design to ensure every user feels seen and represented.

By blending the technical precision of experience architecture with the storytelling soul of editorial design, I build digital spaces that are as accessible as they are visually compelling. Whether I'm architecting a fintech flow or directing a fashion editorial, my goal is to create high-impact experiences rooted in intention, care, and cultural relevance.
