Hi, I’m Jiyeong.

I’m an interaction designer bridging agency-honed visual craft with human-centered research. I combine systems thinking with deep user curiosity to turn complex problems into intuitive products.

I’m in the Master of Design program at Carnegie Mellon. Before Pittsburgh, I studied Information and Interaction Design at Yonsei University and designed at Twoplus Design in Seoul, building design systems and taking client work from strategy to launch.

Outside of product work, I model and render in Cinema 4D and Blender.

Based in Pittsburgh, PA Open to Summer 2027 internships

What I design for

Safety

Controls that stay clear when attention is shortest.

Ubiquity

Interfaces that work for everyone, everywhere.

Connection

Technology that steps aside for the people around you.
