AYUMI LEE

PRODUCT MANAGER

DESIGNER

I’m a product designer from Hong Kong who believes design is the courage to ask “what if”. Before coming to CMU, I interned at IDEO as an interaction designer, worked in a Web3 company as a product designer, and cofounded a data analytics startup from 0 to 1. Outside of work, I love creating illustrations, animations, and playing Volleyball.

RESEARCHER

I love thinking about how people use and are affected by the systems and experiences around them, and beyond that how I can make those relationships more effective. My B.S. in Human Systems Engineering (UX Focus) from Arizona State University has given me interesting perspectives on designing for digital interfaces through the lens of Human Factors.
