Nice to meet you.

Hi there! 👋 I'm Shirley, a Bay Area product designer with a background in design technology.

Most recently, I was the founding product designer at Suger, where I designed enterprise SaaS experiences, complex workflows, and AI-powered products. Before that, I worked as a Design Technologist at Intuit, exploring the intersection of design and engineering.

I love bringing design and technology together, whether it's simplifying complex interactions, exploring new ideas, or building interactive prototypes with code.

Outside of work, you'll find me figure skating, dancing, playing badminton, watching anime, or exploring new places. I also enjoy mentoring designers and connecting with the design community.

Feel free to reach out and say hi!
