Hey there! Iβm Yuka Fan
π§
Iβm currently pursuing a Masters in Human Centered Design & Engineering at the University of Washington. In 2023, I graduated from University of Michigan with a bachelorβs degree in Cognitive Science. At the intersection of human minds and technology, UX design allows me to craft creative solutions and make meaningful impacts - this is what I love about it.
π
I moved around growing up. Iβm Taiwanese but I was raised in Japan and China, and also lived in Canada, and now in the US. My experiences have shaped me into a global citizen with a profound appreciation for diverse cultures, a keen sense of adaptability, and a restless energy to explore the world.
πΏ
Outside of work, Iβm a big fan of nature and art. I love hiking, yoga, making thangka painting, making earrings, playing music on my piano and electric guitar, and playing Zelda on switch.
Artistic expression is where I find pure joy and my truest self π€
Having a creative outlet is important to me, whether it's through making art and music, crafting earrings, designing yoga flowsβ¦and UX design!
