About

๐Ÿ‘‹Hello there! I'm Ha, a designer with a coding background.

Currently, I am a Senior interaction designer at Google. Over the past 6 years at Google, I have been leading design on various product teams: Corp eng, Gmail, G Suite developer platform. My experience spans both consumer and enterprise products, and across all phases of the design process.

I've accumulated 10+ years of experience in the design field, working at in-house design teams, ad agencies, and start-ups. Previously, I studied Industrial Design/Graphic Design at Parsons and Front-end Web Development at General Assembly.

I can help you at any stage of your career, whether you're new and starting out, looking to transition into UX, or looking for someone to help support your career.

As your mentor, here are a few things that I can help you with:
- Breaking into tech
- Navigating a career change into UX
- Building your portfolio and preparing you for your interviews
- Providing guidance as you onboard into a new role or job search
- Expanding your design toolkit

Don't hesitate to reach out, I'm always available and happy to chat!


What mentees say

Ha is, without a doubt, the best mentor I've ever had. He is that kind of mentor who genuinely cares about his mentees. He remember and follows up on every interview I have, allowing me to ask questions about my career or seek clarification on UX concepts and definitions. He's always there, ready to provide answers. For every interview setback, Ha has been my pillar, guiding me through what needs improvement and focusing my efforts on those areas. When I failed on a tech company interview in Feb, he really encouraged me and telling me that I have gone so far since the day 1 and I should really proud of myself. I would never forget that. He never hesitates to leverage his network, introducing me to valuable contacts and offering insights into companies I'm interested in. Thanks to his constructive suggestions and thorough feedback on my portfolio, resume, and presentation deck, I managed to secure a job after 3-4 months of hunting, with three offers to choose from. For those who are like myself in 2 months ago, I want to say is: I understand that the market conditions are not the most favorable right now, but remember to believe in yourself. Finding the right mentor to guide and discuss your path with can make a significant difference. With the right support and mindset, you'll be able to navigate your way through these challenges!

Ha is fantastic! He's very fast to reply to my inquiries, always there for me, quite positive in his attitude, and very knowledgeable. I'm very excited about our current project as we're working on my portfolio. His advice is spot-on and very good. I plan to continue the mentorship for a long time. Thanks, Ha!

Ha is a fantastic mentor! He's very responsive and quite helpful. He gave me amazing tips on how to improve my LinkedIn profile. He also offered a sympathetic ear when I was having issues at work and advised me on what to do. I see myself working with Ha on my goals long term. Thank you, Ha.
