Jocelyn Sun Product Designer Resume
on design /

I design by paying attention to the unspoken: social, cultural, and societal norms, and understanding the why behind the how.

on working /

I build and iterate, taking ideas from problem to working product directly. Prototyping in code is the fastest way to get something truly interactive in front of people to test, and it stays true to the real design system and component library.

on AI /

AI doesn't get a free pass. Like every other feature, it has to earn its place. A chatbot isn't inherently better than a button, a form, or no interaction at all. The real question is whether AI reduces the work people have to do. If users still have to explain, remember, reconcile, and coordinate everything, we've only changed the interface, not the experience.
