About Me

“I specialize in designing clarity in a world full of distractions.
In short, I design so users don’t ‘rage quit’.”

I’m a Dallas-based Product Designer who loves solving problems through thoughtful, user-centered design.

My fascination with technology and its impact on everyday life led me to a career where I can bridge the gap between people and digital products.

With experience in digital payments, service platforms, and customer experience, I specialize in wireframing, prototyping, and usability research to create intuitive, business-driven solutions. I thrive in collaborative environments, where I can refine ideas through iteration and data-backed insights.

I’m always exploring new ways to enhance usability, simplify workflows, and create seamless, engaging experiences that make a difference. My goal is to design products that not only function well but also feel effortless and enjoyable to use.

Testimonials

Here's what others are saying about me.

“Honjae used his natural curiosity and customer centric personality to conduct research that put the user at the center of his work. I saw his user research skill improve drastically over the time that I worked with him.”

Annie Henson — UX Researcher, Kroger

“During the designing phase, our team often got caught up in the small details, but Honjae would always reminds us of the broader vision to bring out focus back to the users. Honjae’s Figma knowledge allowed use to rapidly deliver wireframes and mid/high fidelity prototypes”

Charles Smith — Content Science

“I was impressed by by his mastery over UX tools, like Figma. His immense empathy towards users, and his professionalism with stakeholders is what makes him a great asset.”
