Welcome!
Hi there!👋
I'm Eric Yang, a UX/UI/Product Designer, currently attending UMD's HCI Masters program. One of my principle concerns is diversifying my abilities as a designer, whether it be being able to personally translate my Figma mockups to working React components, to integrating marketing goals into my design process, my goal is to be as cross-functional as I can with engineering, marketing, and business strategy when tackling design tasks.
I design under the assumption that a user's first impression is make-or-break, thus I strive for designs that are both visually unique and enjoyable to use to capture both attention and engagement.
What led me here was a mixture of my background in digital art and graphic design, coupled together with my academic focus on psychology and cognitive science which combine to inform and guide my user-centered thinking and visual design work.
