About
Hi! I'm Iris,
a designer who works at the intersection of design, strategy, and technology. I'm currently studying Business & Computer Science at UBC, where I design systems that turn complexity into clarity.
I believe good design is patient — it listens before it speaks and asks one more question before drawing the first frame. My work spans product interfaces, brand identities, and the occasional sketchbook page that never makes it online.
When I'm not in Figma, you'll find me catching up on my reading list, discovering a new Pho restaurant, or sketching up beautiful landscapes.
