Hi, I’m Kaia(KI-Yuh) Cai. UX Designer and XR Designer living in London. I help create brand & digital experiences for user-friendly projects. Have been working in the user experience industry for over five years.

Passion for Design: From Startups to Corporations, My Journey So Far.

I hold a Master's degree in Human-Computer Interaction and a Bachelor's degree in Software Engineering, backed by over five years of experience in the Design and Tech industry.

My expertise spans design principles, user experience, and front-end development, with proficiency in tools like Adobe Creative Suite, Sketch, and Figma, as well as languages such as HTML, CSS, TypeScript, and JavaScript.

My design journey, rooted in early entrepreneurial experience, and collaboration with diverse clients across startups to large corporations. As a UX Designer, I specialise in creating user-friendly interfaces through a user-centric approach, incorporating thorough user research and prototyping.

Beyond professional pursuits, I stay abreast of emerging design trends, attend conferences, and actively contribute to the design community. My entrepreneurial background adds a practicalperspective to my digital solution.

My design philosophy is rooted in addressing the complexities of human existence and the global disparities we face. With a profound fascination for AI, I am driven to leverage my skills towards forging meaningful collaborations with pioneering AI technologies. At same time, I'm open to new collaborative opportunities and invite inquiries or discussions about potential collaborations.
