About

Hello, I am Amina Konysbayeva, a product designer with a foundation in UX research and interaction design. I specialize in translating complex workflows into clear, thoughtful interfaces through user interviews, prototyping, and iterative design. I enjoy collaborating with cross-functional teams to develop design systems and deliver engaging solutions ready for development.

I recently earned a B.S. in Cognitive Science with a Design and Interaction specialization at UC San Diego. I love applying research insights to education, healthcare, and experiential tech projects. I’m motivated by opportunities to bridge research and design to improve real-world outcomes.
