Designing for a world where everyone belongs.
Hey, I'm Kexin Sha. My friends call me Kelsey!
As a UX and industrial designer, I specialize in creating user-friendly digital and physical products. Currently, I'm pursuing an MFA in interaction design at Purdue University.
My interdisciplinary background in science, engineering, and design allows me to approach design problems with a practical yet empathetic mindset. I'm passionate about inclusive design, and strive to create products that meet the needs of underrepresented groups.
My goal as a designer is to use my skills and expertise to create products that make a positive impact on society. Let's work together to make it happen!
