MY STORY
I’m Junjin, but most people call me Jun! I study User Experience Design at the University of Michigan, with minors in Business and Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence.
I'm proud to be born and raised in Queens, New York, the most diverse neighborhood in the world. Each street is full of so much language, art, and culture.
I spent my childhood expressing emotion through art. In high school, I discovered a love for technology and human psychology, but I missed the artistic creativity that defined my upbringing. UX became the bridge, as my designs reflect the cultural richness of human experience I was surrounded by growing up.

Statistics with Python
This course built foundational skills in statistical analysis using Python, with a focus on applying data to inform UX research and information design. I explored probability, hypothesis testing, and data visualization through real-world datasets, developing the ability to make data-driven decisions in user-centered contexts.
Human Computer Interaction
This course focused on designing intuitive interfaces by understanding the psychological, social, and technical factors that shape user experience. Through hands-on projects, I researched, designed, and evaluated interactive systems, strengthening my ability to create user-centered digital products.
Online Community Design
