Digital Product Designer.
Vietnamese-American. Born & raised in Los Angeles. Based in New York City. Snowboarder. Home chef. Animal Crossing enthusiast. Sushi addict.
I love crafting solutions inspired by real everyday needs. I aspire to create simplicity from complexity and design experiences that need no explanation —just intuitive harmony. I’m on a mission to make everyday life easier one product at a time.
My Design Principles
-
A deep understanding of user needs guides my design approach. Designing in public and engaging users as co-creators is key to creating impressive designs that also intuitively serve the people who matter the most - the users.
-
Atomic design is the secret to a scalable design system. Breaking down complex UI elements into atomic components and managing a documented design system is how I've learned to streamline collaboration between UI/UX and front-end engineers.
-
I’ve found that quantitative data and qualitative research like step by step shadowing of users help identify pain points and proactively addresses them right at the source.
