Hello! My name is Kristine Nguyen.
I am a designer & developer passionate about having a small impact on someone's daily lives.
Currently working at Citi as a UX Design Engineer
How it started! Neopets sparked my curiosity into digital design and my ambition to make people use my design! The day when the constant UI change in middle school, I always questioned why the user experience doesn't make sense to me.
Feel free to reach out to me for work inquiries, project collabs, or boba chats (I love boba).
Check out my Etsy & Storenvy.
