Hey there!
I’m Yuri Kim.
I was the kid who made looping GIFs in Photoshop just to make my friends smile.
In college, I studied graphic design at Ewha Womans University in Seoul, where I led the web design of Ewhaian.com, the university's official student platform. That experience taught me my first lesson about how design shapes behavior.
To deepen my expertise, I moved to New York and earned my MFA in Interaction Design at SVA. Since then, I've worked on AI tools, fintech systems, and community platforms—transforming complex workflows into clear, trustworthy experiences.
At Navan and various early-stage startups, I've collaborated closely with engineers, PMs, and researchers to ship meaningful products quickly without compromising quality or user experience.
As a designer, I believe that how something feels is just as important as how it functions. I specialize in bringing clarity to technical products while maintaining speed and intentionality.
