Hi, I'm Jingxiu 👋🏻
I'm a Product Designer with 4+ years of experience, specialising in UI design, user research and design systems. Currently, I'm a Senior UX Architect and the Design Systems Lead at DSTA.
I've designed for both startups and large organisations across the government, education and e-commerce sectors. I also have a Master's in Human Computer Interaction and a background in Psychology.
Outside of work, I stay connected to the design community through speaking engagements and local meet-ups. In my free time, I'm usually travelling, playing sports or binging a new TV series!
My Background 👨🏻💻
BSc Psychology 🧠
2017- 2020
I studied Psychology at UCL out of a deep interest in how our minds work and what drives human behaviour. I graduated top of the cohort and worked as a research assistant for various psychology labs.
During the summer, I worked on UX projects with an education startup (CuriousCore) and a sustainable e-commerce startup (Everyday Vegan).
MSc Human-Computer Interaction 🖥️
2020 - 2021
I pursued a Master's in Human-Computer Interaction at UCL to explore the intersection of technology and human behaviour, while strengthening my knowledge of interaction science and usability principles. I graduated with Distinction and was on the Dean's List.
During this time, I worked on UX projects with a global data science company (Dunnhumby) and within the university (UCL).
Senior UX Architect & DS Lead 🪖
2022 - Present
As a Senior UX Architect at DSTA, I currently design products at DSTA to help safeguard Singapore against threats in the information domain.
As the Design Systems Lead, I also manage a cross-functional team of designers and developers to strategise, build and maintain DSTA's design system.
