Hi, I’m Yeji. Nice to meet you! 😊

I kicked off my career as a graphic designer at a fashion company in Los Angeles, where I enjoyed designing web banners and editing photos. From there, I worked as a full-time Graphic Designer at various firms. During this time, I learned about UX/UI design from my coworkers, did some research, and realized it was a perfect fit for me. So, I decided to study UX Design.

Transitioning from Graphic Design to UI/UX felt smooth and natural. I began using tools like user personas, empathy maps, and user flows to create designs that truly resonate with people. This experience taught me something invaluable: the key to crafting exceptional designs lies in genuinely understanding people's experiences.

Now as a UI/UX designer, I combine deep empathy with strong focus and execution. I’m passionate about understanding users on an emotional level and turning those insights into thoughtful, intuitive designs. I love bringing fresh ideas to the table, collaborating with teams, and seeing projects through from start to finish. I don’t just design to make things look good—I design to solve real problems and create meaningful experiences.

And that's exactly what I'm here to do!

Thanks for taking the time to get to know me. I look forward to learning about you and how we can collaborate. Talk soon! 🚀

    Mercury's Coffee Co. : Website Re Design

    Mercury is a coffee shop that I frequently visit. Their story, sourcing, taste, and interior design are all best-in-class. I was shocked when I visited their website and discovered how little effort was put into it. I totally redesigned the website to match the level of design and user experience I believe appropriately reflects Mercury.
