I’m Hannah (Han-Shin) Shing, a UX designer with a strong information background and hands-on experience in both UX design and research. I have extensive experience using Figma to build and maintain robust design systems, as well as creating highly interactive prototypes that bring designs to life.

Through two finance-focused internships, I’ve mastered conducting user research, leading usability testing, and transforming insights into impactful, technically feasible design solutions. Currently, I’m pursuing an MS in Human-Computer Interaction at the University of Maryland, specializing in generative AI-driven UX design and accessibility.
