Lenora Porter

Lenora is a creative unicorn who decided to merge her love for art, psychology, and technology into a lucrative career called User Experience Design. She attended the University of Florida and graduated (2014) with a Bachelor’s Degree in Family, Youth, and Community Sciences. She knew her degree did not reflect the traditional route toward a career in technology so she became a lifelong learner. With the use of Youtube, Udemy, and attending a coding boot camp (Wyncode Academy), Lenora was able to transition from a High School Math Teacher to a Product Designer. Currently, she’s one of the awesome designers disrupting the business VoIP world at IDT Corporation.

When she’s not at work, Lenora enjoys spending time in her community speaking about design, mentoring students, and inspiring future creatives. Lenora believes tech is much more colorful and artsy than it seems. Through her story, she hopes to shed light on the arts and its place in technology.
