I’m Faith!

I'm Faith, most recently a UX Engineer intern at Gradial, where I worked on automating content operations. I'm also a recent graduate of the University of Washington IxD Program.

Growing up around the world— in Malaysia, California, Costa Rica, and Hong Kong—shaped me as a third culture kid, deeply influencing my approach as a designer. It strengthened my adaptability and reinforced the importance of empathy in my work.

I believe in designing with intention and am passionate about building products that create a meaningful impact. I'm also a firm believer in continuous growth—always looking to learn from past projects and experiences. One of the reasons I love product design is that it allows me to understand how things work. As a kid, I was always pestering my parents with "why" and "how" questions, and today, I get to channel that same curiosity into designing better solutions when things don’t work as they should.

Outside of design, you can find me taking a hot barre or pilates class, enjoying hot pot, doom-scrolling on LinkedIn and TikTok, and reading about up and coming startups!
