Hello! I'm Mieko,

a versatile UX designer combining empathy, research, and technical skills to build experiences that empower users.

ABOUT ME

My journey has always been driven by creativity and curiosity. I started as an activewear designer at Under Armour, where I focused on creating innovative and functional apparel. I loved how good design could enhance performance.

Transitioning to UX design allowed me to deepen my ability to identify and solve user needs. With a strong foundation in coding, I approach collaboration with empathy, eager to combine creativity and problem-solving to build meaningful, user-centric products. I thrive on learning new technologies and embracing new challenges.

In my free time, I love staying active, planning trips, and trying new restaurants.
