About Me

Hello again! I’m Cynthia Lei, a senior at Cornell University from NYC studying UX Design, Psychology, & Business

Rare photo of me not in NY (in SF) 🌁

Outside of work, I'm a sticker hunter! internet sleuth! makeup reviewer! journaling enthusiast!

Ever since I was little, I wanted to emulate good design. From creating visually appealing, informative slide decks to content for my high school student initiative, or editing YouTube videos, I always ensure I add a splash of beauty & fun!

However, I didn’t know how to harness my experiences in the digital design space. I entered college thinking I would go into child psychology because I spent the previous summer as a research assistant at MIT’s Early Childhood Cognition Lab. It wasn’t until I took Intro to Digital Product Design during my first semester that it clicked to me that I could combine my passion for technology and design.

The rest is history (on my résumé & in this video ⬇)!

For coffee chats/design inquiries, reach out!

I’m always happy to share my experiences with aspiring designers or provide design services to businesses big and small.
