Hi! I’m Kate Lee. an artist, designer, researcher, and recent alum from Carnegie Mellon University.

why work with me
I bring a mix of strategic thinking and hands-on design execution. I’m not just focused on making things look good. I care about solving real user problems and aligning design decisions with business goals. Through my UX projects, I’ve developed strong research and prototyping skills, and I’m comfortable iterating quickly based on feedback. I’d bring both creativity and structure to your team.
When I'm Not Designing
You'll find me trying out new nail art designs from asia or painting new pattern ideas in my art studio.
