Beyond the featured case studies above, these are additional projects — client work, class explorations, and side builds that shaped how I approach accessible web products.

What can I bring

01

I ship the front-end

I write the semantic HTML, CSS, and ARIA myself. Focus states, keyboard flows, and screen-reader behavior survive into production instead of getting lost in handoff — because I build them, not just spec them.

02

Accessibility, real-world tested

I've hand-coded a live WCAG 2.1 AA government platform. With the European Accessibility Act and ADA Title II deadlines landing, I help teams design out compliance risk early — as working code, not a checklist.

03

A real bridge to engineering

I speak enough of engineering's language to make the work better: designs grounded in what's shippable, fewer dropped details, and a smoother handoff because there's simply less to hand off.

I move fast with Claude, Cursor, and Figma — more energy for the decisions that matter.

About me

Originally from Taiwan, I moved to Arizona in August 2024 to pursue my M.S. in UX/HCI at Arizona State University, graduating in May 2026. I speak fluent Mandarin and am learning Japanese and German.

I've designed across web + mobile, shipped front-end work, and love collaborating closely with engineers. I'm also a hackathon award winner (2nd Place, RoseHack 2025 for Daily Moo Mood) and People's Choice Award · Endstar Game Maker Spark Challenge recipient, and I care deeply about community—through volunteering, serving as a Student Adobe Ambassador at ASU, and my work with Toastmasters.
