👋 Hey, I'm Sophia!

(In Chinese: 杨嘉 Yang Jia)

I'm a full-stack product designer with a background in Data Science and Communication from the University of Southern California.

Speaking of my design process…

💡 It's systematic and adaptable.

Linear on paper

My design journey began with curiosity

🤔 How can visual elements and data come together to craft compelling stories?

My journey into design started with a handmade board game I built while teaching English to kids in my neighborhood. I wanted to make the lessons more fun, so I created a handmade board game. But that moment taught me something I've carried with me ever since: design is about clarity, connection, and helping people do what they need to do, better.

My goal is to

🖌️ Connect pixels with people, make technology more accessible, and push the boundaries of how we interact in a digital world.

I believe good design goes beyond aesthetics - it forges real connections and deeper understanding. By combining craftsmanship with systematic thinking, I develop solutions that don’t just look great, but also inspire and drive measurable outcomes.
