ABOUT.

Hello there.

My name is Ira Blossom II. I'm currently a Junior at Villanova University pursuing a major in Psychology with a concentration in Cognitive Science and minor in Computer Science.

I have a strong interest in UX as a whole, but I have a special place in my heart for research and design.

I'm a basketball fanatic and a hated Lebron fan. If you want to hear from me or get to know me a bit, feel free to stalk me on Facebook, Forrst, Twitter, Google+, Flickr, and Email.
