ABOUT ME
Fiona Szeto
I design research-driven experiences at the intersection of psychology, AI, and play.
My background in psychology shapes how I approach design — not just understanding what people need, but also the psychological influence and impact design has on people. I'm drawn to work that's thoughtful, cross-platform, and a little more playful than it needs to be.

Currently open to interaction design, product design, and creative technologist roles, as well as freelance opportunities.

MY CORE DESIGN PRINCIPLES

Design Grounded in People
Great design starts with understanding people. Not just their needs, but the stories, emotions, and behaviors that shape meaningful experiences.
Design Protects.
Designing for Impact, Not Exploitation
Consider the psychological influence design has on people. Build experiences that serve humanity's best interest, not just engagement metrics.
