Hi, I’m MJ, a digital product designer based in San Francisco.
My childhood dream was to make things when I grew up, and growing up in South Korea and Silicon Valley meant that I found a natural path to designing software, compared to designing clothes - which I was obsessed with in middle school. I enjoy working in both ‘left brain’ and ‘right brain’ modes and I like to learn and improve in my job each day. I’ve worked in many contexts: founding designer of early stage startups, design manager, project lead in a consultancy, a designer at an established tech company, and as a teacher at Stanford’s design program.
