My name is An (/æn/) (she/her).

✰ What is my background?

Born in Vietnam, I am currently a student at Tufts University pursuing a double degree in Engineering Psychology (Human Factors Engineering) and Studio Art with a specialization in Digital Media, minoring in Engineering Management.

✰ How did I get into design?

I have always been a visual storyteller. My design journey began with early explorations in visual arts and graphic design. Since taking my first UX design class during college, I knew I wanted to grow beyond being a visual designer. I pursued product/ UX design because of its interdisciplinary nature that combines visuals, psychology, and data analysis.

✰ How do I approach design?

I blend human-centered systems thinking into my process, tackling complex challenges by staying grounded in the needs of diverse users while understanding the interconnected UX dimensions - from lower to higher-order experiences. I enjoy turning complex, ambiguous insights into actionable solutions that align user needs with business goals.
