Site: https://venushkaperampalam.com/
Contact: venushka27@gmail.com
Location: Canada (previously Colombo, Sri Lanka)
Education: Master of Business Administration (online), Avid College, 2025–2026. Diploma in Interactive Media Design, Algonquin College, 2022–2023 (Dean's Honour List 2022 & 2023, 3.91 GPA)

## Positioning

Most designers infer where people hesitate. Venushka has spent over two years watching it happen in person, selling furniture face to face at The Brick while continuing to design. That combination — a decade of craft plus direct observation of buying behaviour — is what the portfolio is built around: research, structure, interface, outcome.

## Services

- UI/UX design: user research, personas, journey maps, user flows, wireframes, prototypes, usability testing, design systems, responsive web and mobile app design.
- Graphic design: brand identity, logos, print production, social and marketing collateral, packaging and stationery.
- Development: front-end implementation and developer handoff, landing pages, design-to-code QA.

## Selected work

- **Dream Cones** — Website design. A home-based ice cream venture with a new shop and no online presence at all.
- **Superfood** — Mobile app design. Home cooks stall out for want of reliable inspiration, guidance, and a plan.
- **Canada West Boots** — Website re-design. One site serving retail partners and end customers, serving neither well.

Each case study is documented end to end: research, structure, interface, outcome.

Also: identity work for ParkMeApp, Ceffectz and Travel Bubble (logo design and illustration), and responsive front-end builds (Quiz App, Three Star Media) in HTML, CSS, JavaScript and Bootstrap.

## Experience

- Senior UI/UX Designer — Ceffectz, Colombo, Sri Lanka, 2014–2022. Qualitative and quantitative user research, personas, mood boards, journey maps, user flows, interface design across web and mobile.
- Creative Graphic Designer — DAS Technologies (Pvt) Ltd, Colombo, Sri Lanka, 2012–2014. Social and marketing graphics, print production, cross-platform visual identity, logos and brand elements.
- UI/UX Designer (Volunteer) — LandSeed, Remote, Canada, 2025–2026. Responsive dashboard design, brand-aligned landing pages, collaboration with developers.
- Sales Consultant — The Brick, Canada, 2023–Present (2+ years). Relationship-based selling, product demonstration and needs-matching, credit applications and protection plans.
