My Story
During the summer of 2017, I had a life changing opportunity to cycle across the United States for 3.5 months and raised awareness on mental health by sharing my life stories. As people opened up to me, we shared pain from the past and present, and hope for the future. Since then, I took on social impact projects through writing while trying to discover myself beyond traumas.
Personality and career tests pointed towards creativity and helping others, which led me to UX Design and UX Writing. As a person who experiences mild dyslexia, I hope to make products easier to navigate.

“Kang Haira” meaning “to be strong”, couldn’t exemplify how much courage it took to get to where I am today. While in pursuit of finding my identity, overcoming trauma, and creating a healthier living situation for myself, I came across UXUI design. The endless opportunities to work with various companies made me realize I can indirectly help people through the creation of products. With interests in Sociology, Marketing, and digging into my artistic side, UXUI design is the perfect blend of everything that is what makes me, me.
