About
I’m Kenji Wada, a UX/UI Visual Designer and Researcher with over 10 years of experience combining academia and industry, focusing on data visualization, GIS, and front-end development. I turn complex data and socio-technical challenges into clear, user-centered designs that enable informed decision-making and better user experiences.
I enjoy collaborating across disciplines—from researchers and product teams to front-end engineers—through workshops, usability testing, and design systems. Based in Leiden, I work as a freelance UX/UI designer in the Netherlands, with a track record across academia and industry, and I’m authorized to work for any EU employer.
