Hi, I'm Heejin — often called Heej 👋

A product designer who's spent a decade designing across mobile, web, and smart TVs. I translate emerging technologies and ambiguous problem spaces into clear, scalable experiences — whether on a phone, a browser, or a 10-foot screen.


After four years leading design strategy at Samsung, I'm now exploring what comes next, deep in AI-native interfaces, weekend experiments, and freelance work that keeps me curious.

Always open to a conversation about product, platforms, or where design is headed.
