ANGEL HAGEN

I'm Angel – I build for communities and uncover stroies through design

I’m an UI/UX designer interested in how people think, behave, and make decisions when using technology. I grew up in China and moved to the United States at age 10, an experience that shaped how I notice differences in communication, access, and everyday interactions.

I’m drawn to the intersection of psychology and design, and I care deeply about building products that feel intuitive, intentional, and genuinely useful. My process is grounded in observation, iteration, and understanding real user needs—not just making things look good, but making them work better for people.

Design, for me, is a way to translate complexity into clarity and to build with empathy, purpose, and care.
