About Iris
My journey as a User Experience Designer started from middle school, when I first self-taught Photoshop. I was so impressed by not only how much possibility the tool brought to creative minds, but also the beauty, complexity, and logic within the interface itself.
With a mixed background of engineering and design, I love taking challenges and I enjoy the process of solving problems for people. Having experiences at design agencies, startups and large tech companies, I've been learning to understand the true user problems, and dealing with complexity and ambiguity.
I am currently crafting user experiences for data analytics platforms at Amazon, helping both users, vendors and sellers to consume data in an easy and intuitive way.
