How I found UX ✨
Growing up, I was always fascinated by new technology and interested in helping people. After taking up CS in highschool, I realized that UX is the perfect field of helping people with accessing technology. Currently, I'm learning more about accessible UX, and working on making this website more accessible; UX Design and Quantitative Research.

Why UX Research AND Design? 🎨
I believe it is important to conduct research to understand user needs and pain points to empathize and gather insights to produce user-friendly and intuitive designs. As an aspiring UX professional, I believe it is important for me to understand all aspects of UX to be part of conversations and to be an effective bridge between users and technology.
My long-term career goal is to become a UX Manager, involved in both research & design.
Why UX Research AND Design? 🎨
Outside of UX, you can find me exploring Austin, searching for the best cappuccino, reading non-fiction, visiting museums, taking up DIY projects, rewatching anime or learning new languages (Korean 한글, Japanese 日本語).
