About Me

Hi, I'm Harin!

A Product Designer 🎨 + UX Researcher 🔍 passionate in social good.
Currently a junior studying Cognitive Science (Specialization in Computation) @ UCLA 💛💙🧸.
☀️ My name is pronounced (huh-rin), and I was born in Seoul, South Korea & raised in sunny California.

💡 I love human cognition, technology, social good, design, and how all of those can work hand in hand to create innovative solutions to everyday problems.

🗳️ Involved in student government and civic engagement efforts on campus, I've honed skills in leadership, communication, and advocacy that have shaped me to be the person I am today, personally and professionally.

☕️ When I'm not at my computer, I enjoy brewing coffee, trying new Kit-Kat flavors, and learning about personal color tests (ask me to evaluate your personal color!).
