Yewon Shin
Experience Designer in New York
About

Hi! I'm Yewon, an experience designer based in New York. I'm currently working at AKQA, where I help a wide range of clients understand their business goals and needs, define UX strategy for their desired digital products, and collaborate with other disciplines to bring the products to life.

I grew up in 3 different countries: South Korea 🇰🇷, India 🇮🇳 and China 🇨🇳 where I experienced lots of different cultures and people. This has shaped me into a flexible designer who always thrives for inclusive design.
