I'm Heidi Lai, a product designer passionate about crafting user-centered experiences that blend intuitive design with impactful results.

While I had fewer architectural projects early in my career, those experiences provided me invaluable, transferable skills that continue to inform and improve my design philosophy and commitment to innovative solutions.

My interest in photography helps me develop a keen eye for detail and composition, which informs my design work.
