Robert Winterstein

UI Designer + Front End Developer

What I Do

UI Designer
from Orlando, Florida.

I design and build websites and applications that are easy to use by focusing on content, respecting margins, and adding subtle interactions that engage the user.

My passion for design sparked when I was approaching graduation at Florida Atlantic University. After receiving my degree, I decided to pursue my passion by joining a design bootcamp with Thinkful (formerly Bloc). During the bootcamp, we also learned front end development, and I quickly started loving the problem-solving aspects of it and seeing my designs turn into a real-world product. After completing the bootcamp in 2019, I landed my first internship at Apple as a UX/UI Designer working on internal websites and platforms. In September of 2020, I got another internship with Apple as a Web Developer working on email templates, websites, and some UI design.

Some fun facts: I'm a sucker for great branding — almost bought a brand of almond milk just because of it — cookies & cream flavored anything, and craft beer.
