Lily who?

Hi there! I'm Lily Hu, a product designer and a secret Time Lord opening new dimensions using photoshop.

I have a degree in design and interaction with a minor in psychology from UC San Diego. Always ambitious and empathetic, I began my creative journey fueled by my drive to help others - or simply to bring a smile to people's faces.

With a passion for visual design and understanding people, I am driven towards opportunities where I can practice and grow my skills. I am currently reading Well Designed: How to use empathy to create products people love by Jon Kolko.

My design philosophy

Keep it simple, stupid.

Simplicity is the key to effective design, where beauty and function are perfectly balanced.

Embrace change.

Be open to differing opinions and feedback in order to identify the core problem.

An experience for everyone.

Empower users with inclusive and accessible design.
