Chris Kim
HCI @ UCI | Product Designer in Irvine, CA
About
I am a B.S. Informatics student specializing in Human Computer Interaction at the University of California, Irvine. I focus on designing inclusive and equitable products, using various UX research and testing methods to deliver delightful solutions.
When I'm not designing at my computer, I'm probably outside playing soccer or snowboarding at Big Bear Mountain. Some other hobbies I have are video editing, watching anime, or practicing the guitar.
Education
Projects
16 week solo student project for Designlab’s UX Academy bootcamp, where I underwent the end-to-end product design process, creating a mobile web-app that helps new weightlifters achieve their goals.
I performed user research, user interviews, testing, wireframing, and prototyping to understand the problem, set design goals, and design a solution.
10 week IN4MATX 132 course project at UCI, in which I was the Lead UX Designer in a team of 6 designers to design a mobile app that helped new movers find friends in their area.
I performed white paper research, conducted 10+ user interviews, and generated wireframes to narrow the problem scope and focus the team's design process.
