Hi, I'm Quanchen. I'm an interaction designer based in San Francisco, recently graduating from California College of the Art with a degree in interaction design, minor in computational practices. What I do is that I specialize in designing complex systems, especially logic and structure underneath. I have three CPT internship experiences before graduating. I'm strong in research, UX strategy, and of course Figma, and I've been actively integrating AI tools into my workflow. So you can check the project built with AI in my GitHub and of course for my portfolio website. So I'm actively looking for a full-time product or UX interaction designer role in tech, so where I can grow fast and work on meaningful complex problems. Yeah, I think it's easy to like download it and open it because I've been working using AI working on it, so it's easy to download it. But one thing, one issue I have encountered is that I found that there's not much like position opportunity match with my position. The most job matches are mostly like senior engineers and co-founder roles. So are there plans to like bring in more design positions like interaction design or product design? That's why I would get me checking the platform more frequently.
