A Little about me
I am Soo Hwang, an evidence-driven product designer captivated by connecting people and spreading new mindsets with design and technology. Currently, I am a Master’s student in Human-Centered Design and Engineering @University of Washington. I would describe myself as highly curious and love to learn new things in all parts of life, personal and professional. I studied Art & Technology @Sogang University, an interdisciplinary major, so I learned UX design and programming. Previously, I interned at an IT drone startup as a UX designer in South Korea. This summer, I worked as a Product designer @C3.ai, for the enterprise financial application using AI / ML technologies. As a highly curious person, I love to meet new users daily, explore their problems and create design solutions. In my personal life, I spent a lot of time getting new inspiration by exploring new places and meeting new people. I love to explore new tech software to enable my life to be more efficient and fun. I always try to be a constant learner in everyday life, trying to change and self-reflecting to learn new things.

I can solve complex problems logically and visually. With my background and knowledge from Art &Technology field, I solve complex data or complex structures through a user-centered approach. I create solutions for users with fast prototyping and visual senses.
I adapt quickly to the new environment and constantly strive to learn new things. With my multidisciplinary background, I can collaborate smoothly with engineers, PMs, and designers and solve problems. I am always eager to learn new things every day.
I always try to be a good listener. When I first entered the UX field, I was fascinated by listening to people's stories, understanding them, and suggesting solutions for them. I am a designer who always tries to empathize.
