Hi, I’m Lian.
A Senior UX Designer with 12+ years across higher education, government, healthcare, and enterprise B2B.
Working on in-house teams, at agencies, and at a consultancy has made me a versatile designer. I move fluidly from research and strategy through high-fidelity design and even front-end coding when needed, and I care as much about how things look as how they function. I’m an accessibility and usability advocate, and I’m at my best on complex projects where requirements are messy and stakeholder alignment matters.
I aim for the balance between what users need, what the business needs, and what’s actually buildable.
