Hi I am Yuqi.
A second-year master's student at Georgia Tech,
specializing in Human-Computer Interaction.
Personally, I have lived in three Chinese cities and attended high school in Austin, Texas.
Professionally, I freelanced as a visual and UX/UI designer to tackle problems in different fields worldwide, these have ranged from finance in South Africa, vocational education in China, and biotechnology in the USA. Enjoying the cooperation in a multicultural and interdisciplinary environment, I am always eager to grasp more skills and aspire to create impactful products for the world.
A content creator with her heart in the right place.
When I am not working, I run self-media on Chinese platforms to deliver content on youth mental health issues. I am a "Youtuber" on Xiaohongshu and Bilibili, a writer on Zhihu (similar to Quora), and the founder and leader of Chinese Sunshine Social Phobia Group.
I grew up with Mother Teresa as my role model.
I admire her loving and caring approach and her determination to aid people in need. One of her quote is my motto for life:
“Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love.”
With her words in heart, I design as no issue is too small to solve and no issue is too large to climb. Becoming a UX designer is one of the ways that I am working to achieve the goal of my life. I believe that any work I do in life, no matter how small, can make a big difference.
Small deeds, big love, lasting impact!
