Hi, I'm Kandice!

About me
I'm a multi-disciplinary product/UX professional, currently living in San Jose, CA.
In my free time, I love listening to music, checking out new food spots, taking photos, playing video/board games and cuddling my cats.
Experience
I have 10 years of experience in UX/product design and research, primarily in enterprise and B2B applications. I'm passionate about user empathy, efficient systems, and clean design.
​​
I've worked at both large companies and startups, across many industries, ranging from cloud CDN to enterprise productivity to AML compliance. I have a proven track record of working with globally distributed teams to streamline workflows, build out design systems, and improve platform applications.
