About Jocelyn Sun

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, and I can take something from problem to working product directly — fluent in Figma, now prototyping in code.

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.
