I'm currently an undergraduate student at the University of California Irvine (UCI) with the goal of becoming a professional UX Researcher/Designer to design products that provide smooth and pleasant user experiences!
During my spare time, I enjoy traveling, playing badminton, and volunteering in various locations.
While looking at the programs that UCI offered, there was a specialization under Informatics called Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). At the time, I’m unaware of the HCI field and have no idea what the field is about. However, after doing some research online and looking through articles about the field, I decided that I want to be a part of the HCI community. Then, after joining the program, I was exposed to the concept of UX design in one of the courses. I was intrigued by the process of UX design and after completing a few projects, I find myself passionate about designing UX projects and was fascinated by the importance of UX in our everyday lives.
