Nice to meet you! I’m Justin 🤗

A bit about myself -

I graduated in September 2024 from the University of Washington with a B.S. in Informatics (Human-Computer Interaction).

My childhood heavily influenced my interest in user experience and design. I grew up around Seattle and was raised in multiple family-owned restaurants where enriching the customer experience was essential. Outside of helping my parents, I explored design as a hobby, diving into digital illustration, graphic design, and 3D modeling

I am driven by empathy to create inclusive, user-centered designs that balance user needs with business goals. I excel in the end-to-end design process, combining thoughtful research, collaboration, and visual design to deliver impactful solutions.

Most recently -

This past summer, I had the exciting opportunity to be the first-ever UX Design Intern in the Sonicare team (OHC Digital) @ Philips. I led the entire research and design process for the Sonicare Watch app, aimed at helping users build and maintain proper brushing habits. I am now seeking full-time opportunities for 2025!

I would love to connect, so feel free to send me an email or add me on LinkedIn.

Fun facts -

Family 👨‍👩‍👦‍👦

  • My family is from Thailand! I was born into the restaurant business, with my parents owning 3 Thai restaurants since I was born.

Dog 🐕

  • Recently, I welcomed two springer-doodle puppies into the family—they’re quite the troublemakers!

Matcha + Food 🍵

  • I’m all about matcha—soft serve, lattes, you name it. Also, I can’t say no to my mom’s amazing cooking!

Tennis + Gym 🎾

  • The gym and I have an on-and-off-again relationship… maybe just an off-relationship, but I have been trying to be more active. Tennis is my favorite sport, and I’m waiting for the heat to come so I can start playing again.
