About me

👋🏼 UX Designer with a background in Art History & Psychology.

It was ten years ago when I helped launch an online exhibition titled Asia at the World’s Fairs at Boston University. Although I majored in different fields, I fell in love with web design. After spending countless hours pouring over website forums, blog posts, and YouTube videos to teach myself some technical skills, I enrolled in the Information Experience Design graduate program at Pratt. It was there that I learned about the greatest asset of a UX designer: the ability to build meaningful relationships and projects with people of diverse cultures, skill sets, and industries. Much like an enticing piece of artwork, good design can inspire, engage, and bring people closer together.

I have since completed the program and currently reside in London. My degrees in UX Design, Art History, and Psychology have led me to take an interdisciplinary approach to design. Whether it’s building a new website for a small business, evaluating an existing website, or preserving digital archives, I’m passionate about delivering an end product that can engage, empower, and enhance the user experience for all.

If you’re interested in working together or simply want to have a chat about projects, don’t hesitate to reach out! In the meantime, feel free to check out some of my projects to keep up with my creative journey.
