What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values collaboration and innovation, where I can contribute to impactful design solutions and continue to grow in my career.

With over 6 years of experience in user experience design, I have honed my skills at leading organizations like Unite Us and LG, where I specialized in creating design systems, responsive designs, and ensuring accessibility for all users. My journey has been marked by a commitment to enhancing user interactions and driving measurable results.

At Unite Us, I spearheaded the UX design for a groundbreaking B2C healthcare search platform, collaborating with 27 government agencies. This initiative not only improved usability but also led to a significant increase in user traffic and conversion rates. My dedication to accessibility is evident through my comprehensive audits and training sessions, ensuring that our products are inclusive and user-friendly.

My academic background, with a Master of Arts in Information and a Master of Science in UX Design from the University of Michigan, complements my practical experience. I am passionate about mentoring others in the field and continuously strive to push the boundaries of design to create impactful user experiences.
