About me

​My name is JinJie, or Jin for short. As a versatile product designer, I bring together the worlds of UX research, design, and front-end development.

My journey spans from uncovering user needs through in-depth research to translating insights into intuitive designs, and finally, bringing those designs to life with clean, responsive code. With a strong foundation in both human behavior and agile software development, I craft digital experiences that are not only functional but also deeply user-centered.

Education

M.S. in Information at the University of Michigan

My graduate studies provided a deep exploration of UX research and design, as well as working in teams with the agile development style.

B.S. in Psychology at the University of Texas

My knowledge of human psychology, including thought processes and decision-making, enables me to create interaction designs that are more centered on human needs and behaviors.
