About
My name is Earnest Kim and I'm passionate about how good product design can improve inclusivity. I love meeting people who are motivated and are in touch with their creative side
​
With my background in business development and sales, I've had the opportunity to collaborate with companies from photography to entertainment to social media providing website designs, UI designs, and even conduct user research.
My Values
🧽 Being a Sponge
​
Whether it's learning about someone's experiences or learning a new skill, I found the importance of trying to absorb as much information I can and applying it is important. I'm fortunate to be surrounded by motivated people and great mentors who provide guidance and I make sure to not take it for granted.
🎨​ Embrace your creativity
​
Everyone needs some sort of outlet from their hectic lives. When I'm not designing, I'm either writing, creating content for Youtube, or thinking of podcast ideas with my co-hosts. We all need a little creativity that takes us off the ice a bit!
💪 Strive for Excellence
​
I realize that we are never perfect, but putting in our best effort will be recognized. Especially as someone who is making a career change, I realize that just doing the bare minimum won't be enough! Even if I make mistakes along the way, doing things to the best of my ability will always be put at the forefront.
👨👩👦 Make time for family
​
After being across the country from my family for almost 3 years, I realize how important it is to spend time with family. Now that I moved back closer to home recently, I'm trying to make up for lost time. ​
Outside of UX...
I play with my dog, a Maltipoo
I relax by watching anime, particularly Naruto
I make Youtube videos about mental health topics
