Kaitlyn Tran

About

Hello! My name is Kaitlyn, my goal as a designer is to see design as a chance to bring ease and delight into people’s lives, making every interaction feel thoughtful and human. I want to create tech for the social good, with experience in UI/UX design, marketing, and front-end development. I’m passionate about technology’s role in enhancing human experiences and enjoy building accessible interfaces with TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, React, and Figma. I’m happy to chat about video games, matcha, trinkets, and perfumes. Feel free to contact me through my email: kaitlynvtran@gmail.com.
