Hey, I’m Christina 💫

Who am I?

I was born and raised in Rochester, NY. I have a deep love for this city and stayed here for my academic years. I got my BFA in New Media Design at the Rochester Institute of Technology.

I am a first-generation American, as my family immigrated here to seek refuge from the Khmer Rouge. My mom and grandma, both single mothers, predominantly raised me to be who I am today. They taught me the values of family, compassion, and appreciation. Because of them, not a day goes by that I’m not thankful for the position they fought to put me in. I aim to spread the expression of care and understanding that was so heavily instilled in me throughout my life.

In my free time, I’m either playing board games, trying to 100% video games, watching horror movies or anime, painting miniatures, or collecting Kirbys.

Why is this my passion?

I learned that through user experience, I have a direct opportunity to improve people’s lives, make them feel considered, and provide a comfortable space. These are all things that personally bring me a lot of happiness and fulfillment. :)
