‎‎I'm Linn Htet Aung a UI/UX designer based in Bangkok who gets excited about making complicated things simple .

I design digital products across HR, fintech, e-commerce, and POS. As technology evolves quickly, many products need continuous improvement. My focus is always on finding the simplest, most effective solution for users.

I’ve worked across cross-functional teams with different stakeholders and teammates. I conduct user and competitor research to identify opportunities for improvement, then make informed decisions quickly with limited time and data. I work within established component libraries and build scalable design systems that keep products consistent. I value collaborating with people who bring different expertise to create practical solutions and better outcomes.

Currently, I work on freelance projects across the United States and Bangkok, including restaurant ordering apps, business landing pages, and directory platforms. Last year, I studied for a Master’s degree in Interaction Design at the University of the Thai Chamber of Commerce while working remotely with AYA Bank. There, I contributed to an e-wallet app, a merchant app, and the MFF Futsal app for the Myanmar National Football Association.

When I’m not designing, you’ll find me drawing or illustrating with a coffee nearby. It’s how I slow down, reset, and stay creative. Otherwise, I’m exploring thoughtful interfaces and studying what makes them feel clear and intuitive.
