Get to know more about Betty
Hello, Iām Betty. A UI/UX designer and visual artist passionate about creating meaningful digital experiences that balance aesthetic appeal with thoughtful functionality. I specialize in translating complex concepts into intuitive interactions where every design element serves a purpose.
I recently earned my Master's in User Experience Design from Pratt Institute, complementing my Bachelor's in Computer Art from the School of Visual Arts. This dual background allows me to approach design challenges with both technical precision and creative vision.
What drives my work is observing those pivotal moments when design seamlessly connects with users - whether it's seeing someone navigate an interface effortlessly or witnessing the instant comprehension of a well-crafted data visualization.
I welcome opportunities to collaborate on projects that make a difference.
As an ENFJ, I thrive on empathy, collaboration, and storytelling, which help me create human-centered, emotionally resonant designs. My ability to understand user needs and inspire creative solutions allows me to craft intuitive and impactful experiences.
2000 "Surprise Gift"š
My mother, a devout Buddhist, visited a temple where she prayed to a Bodhisattva for a child, as my parents had been struggling to conceive. Miraculously, on the journey back from the temple, she discovered she was pregnant.
Ten months later, I was born in Haikou, China.
2019 "Step in New York City"šļø
I have loved art, painting, and visual design since I was a child. Later in high school, I chose to apply for art school.
Among the many admissions, I was very inclined to go to the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, but in the end, for various reasons, I accepted the invitation to the School of Visual Arts in New York. My journey in New York began.
I still think it is a magical journey.
2025 "Start a new chapter in life"šļø
This year, I completed my postgraduate studies and graduated with excellent results. I have now started a new journey in my life, looking for a favorite and stable job.
The beginning of a new journey makes me excited and scared. I hope everything goes well, and I also hope that you, who see this, will achieve your dreams.
2022 "Competition Winner"šļø
This year was important. I decided to switch from Computer Art to User Experience Design and continue my postgraduate studies in New York.
While applying, I participated in two design competitions related to my work and won good results (second and third place, respectively).
At the end of this year, I received postgraduate admission notices for interactive design from the University of Edinburgh, Loughborough University, Pratt Institute, and the School of Visual Arts in New York.
