About Me

Hello, 안녕하세요!

Hello, 안녕하세요!

I'm Soyeon Kim, a UX designer who started in visual communication design in Seoul and later moved to Germany for my master's degree to study UX design. I specialize in design systems and accessibility, believing in design's power to create meaningful impact through systematic thinking.


Beyond design, I'm passionate about cooking and baking (I even attended culinary school!), have traveled to 28 countries, and teach Korean —experiences that continuously enrich my design perspective.

My favorite foods are made with soy.

My favorite foods are made with soy.

Just like my name, I have a thing for soy-based foods. Like soybeans that are nutritious, versatile, and inclusive, I strive to create adaptable designs that nourish users.
