👋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!

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!

As we all know, starting a new role can be daunting and you only have a few months to prove your value at the company. Furthermore, you only have one shot at it. Ha provided a lot of great tips to ace my 1st few months which enabled me to reach breakeven point in just 1.5 months instead of the usual 3. I am super grateful for his mentorship. Beyond workplace navigation, influencing without authority and stakeholder management, Ha has taught me many UX concepts and patterns from search to side panels. This enabled me to create solid designs based on world class standards. I am glad to have Ha as my mentor and he would be one of the few designers that I would turn to whenever I have tough design challenges. I highly recommend Ha to any designers looking to upgrade their design career or skills!
