Hello, my name is Ginnie.

Researcher

I’m passionate about crafting designs that are welcoming, thoughtful, and engaging – believing strongly that design is a friend.


Most recently, I was part of Cisco’s CX team, creating AI support and SaaS dashboards that aren’t just functional but also empathetic and user-centered.


Before that, I wore many hats at a Web3 startup, where I helped build and engage a growing community. My path to design started at UC Davis, where I explored everything from branding and architecture to fashion design and prototyping – embracing creativity in all its forms.

I aim to continue exploring the unlimited possibilities of design to solve problems and create enjoyable, meaningful experiences.

Design Philosophy

Be a Friend

Friends are empathetic – They listen, and they help. Intentional and welcoming designs can be people’s friends that support them through their journey.

Collaboration Makes Impact

Great designs and stories are born from collaboration. The most impactful designs are a culmination of many great ideas and shared knowledge.

Because Why Not?

Inspired by one of my managers, Min, who always said, “Why Not?”

No matter how out of the box an exploration is, it will always be useful to someone and someday in the future. Through exploration and research, we can shape enjoyable, accessible solutions and meaningful user journeys.
