Haley Park is a design jack-of-all-trades and a master of buying herself little treats
Hello! I'm Haley. I live in the lovely San Mateo with my sweet cat, B.B.1
I grew up in Seoul and spent most of my life there. In college I did Interaction Design plus some Computer Science, and played chamber music. I also worked at early-stage startups wearing many different hats.2
After that I did Master's in HCI, and worked at Square while living in Boston. Then I moved to the San Francisco Bay Area chasing sunlight and my partner. I worked briefly at Adept AI Labs, and then got acqu-hired* into Amazon.
I practice jazz bass, jam with friends, make silly noises to B.B., stare at paintings at museums, overanalyze movies, and cry at symphony halls. I try to read, write, paint, and keep my plants alive.3
My principle is to craft with care. I want to design software with a soul and websites worth wandering.
I like to smudge the boundaries of product design, brand design, and prototyping with one question in mind: how would this make people feel?
