Hi there! I’m Bohwa Seo. 

I'm a dedicated UX Researcher with 5 years of experience as a service designer and project manager. 

My approach emphasises understanding and addressing core user problems rather than jumping to solutions. By leveraging a mix of design research methods, I deliver insights that drive meaningful and user-centred outcomes.
