I am a UX/UI designer with a passion for creating usable and delightful design solutions. With 6+ years experience in the creative industry, I participated in various project typologies and design stages in multi-cultural environments. The education inHCI and Architecture provided me a hybrid and cross-disciplinary skill sets and design perspectives. Years of practice in coordinating stakeholders and project teams from ambiguity to clarity, I built strong cross-team collaboration skills and abilities to tackle complex design problems. I anticipate graduation with M.S. degree in HCI in May 2017, and currently, I am actively seeking full-time employment opportunity.
