A B O U T M E

I’m Yiwen, a UX Designer currently pursuing an MFA in UX Design at SCAD. I’m driven by curiosity and empathy, with a focus on making complex systems easier to understand and use.


My work spans user research, interaction design, and visual storytelling. I conduct interviews, synthesis, and journey mapping to uncover user needs and pain points, then translate insights into clear, structured solutions, from information architecture to high-fidelity prototypes.


I enjoy collaborating across teams to bring clarity to complex workflows, especially in onboarding and system-driven experiences. My goal is to create intuitive, efficient, and meaningful experiences that help users navigate complexity with confidence.
