(っ◔◡◔)っ ♥ Hi There ♥

Originally from South Korea, I enjoy learning new things especially new languages. In some sense, my professional life is a story of constant learning. When I moved to America I found I had the same natural ability for programming languages as I did for learning English. How great it is to simply communicate in just ones and zeroes. Then I found myself gradually incorporating the world of ones and zeroes with various forms of design (graphic design and typography, web design, multimedia design), to finally end up as an User Experience designer in the HCI field.

Human-Computer Interaction has been a natural progression with my passion to design and produce what meets the user’s mental model. I have now developed my skills to a point where I have the ability to make ideas into reality. This is exciting. I just enjoy programming, too. What I can't accept is "You can't do that because..." If there is a will, there is a way. This is my motto.

Other than working, I do enjoy lots of other activities. I love movies, concerts, and arts. I love cooking. Korean is my specialty, of course. Japanese, Thai, Indian, Italian, French, Mexican, etc. Trying out new cuisine is always fun. Because I love to cook and eat, if you put me in a gym, I will live there. I have been doing yoga, pilates, cycling, kickboxing, body conditioning, step aerobics, and so on. Recently, I have been playing badminton. It is terrific exercise.

I like to think of myself as an active, creative, dedicated, and exuberant person. I am a good listener and a good story teller.

Su Kyeong is very insightful, intelligent, pragmatic and highly collaborative. She can quickly assess the UX needs of a team and execute on a plan that produces designs that results in better products. She takes a keen interest in the business goals of a project and clearly intends her work to be actionable and have impact. I worked with Su Kyeong on multiple projects at MarketLive including the company’s first native iOS application, Omni-Touch POS, a mobile Point of Sale application. During our collaboration on the project, I was immediately impressed with Su Kyeong’s intelligence and get-stuff-done approach. We quickly agreed upon a UX plan, and recruited and scheduled a diverse set of customers to speak with. Su Kyeong produced a compelling and clear design that factored in the store associate, store manager and administrator personas, the typical use cases and also aligned superbly with our product vision. Su Kyeong would be a great asset for any user experience team.

Su Kyeong is an extremely strong UI Designer who delivers high quality work day in and day out. She works well under pressure and turns around impressive designs even during compressed delivery schedules. She has the acute ability to take broad ideas and turn them into creative masterpieces with limited iterations, often providing a solution that was everything the customer wanted…and more! She is the consummate team player; always willing to help, take on tasks beyond her own to keep our product deliverables on schedule, and teach or guide anyone across the organization in her areas of expertise. It has been a pleasure having Su Kyeong on my team and I would hire her again if given the chance

Renee Gangnath
eCommerce Creative Director

Su Kyeong has a unique ability to take complex usability problems and solve them with clean and simple designs that minimize steps and maximizes user success. She is always user-centered and task-focused in her designs, and has a great understanding of when to introduce new information and features to optimize the user interaction flows that she creates. She has worked with me on many projects at MarketLive from the very large (the new Responsive Shopping Template set, the new drag-n-drop Automated Mechandising UI) to the small (improvements for the MarketLive Administration UI). In all of those projects, Su Kyeong's unique blend of design vision and pragmatism produced user experiences that our Merchants and their Shoppers are using to great success. As a Product Manager, I consider myself lucky when I have Su Kyeong as the design lead on my projects.

Tom Carlin
Product Management

Su Kyeong is a great designer. She does not compromise and rightfully so because her decisions are always well-informed. She puts in the effort in understanding not just the customers but the overall business strategy and goals. Business understanding together with her top-notch design skills makes her a good addition to any team she will be part of. She was our UI/UX Designer for a product we took to market, and I could not be more satisfied with her deliverables.
