Projects

Spinning in Space

I collaborated with cross-functional teams to enhance the avatar customization feature of Spinning in Space, a mobile game at DoubleDown Interactive. Using tools like Balsamiq, Figma, and Photoshop, I iteratively designed low-fidelity wireframes and high-fidelity mock-ups, incorporating feedback from playtesting and team members. Team management tools like Confluence facilitated communication and collaboration, particularly with our South Korean counterparts, overcoming language barriers and cultural differences to achieve cohesive design implementation.See More
