Han ZhangCreative tech + Design research
gracehan2333@gmail.com


I'm a designer, researcher, and creative technologist based in Los Angeles California. Born in Guangdong, shaped by three years of UX research and product strategy in Shanghai, now pursuing MFA in Media Design Practices at ArtCenter in Pasadena.

I build systems exploring how culture and technology shape cognition; like...how pop culture rewires expectations, how surveillance changes behavior, how interfaces train us to think. My work asks: how do the tools we design reshape the way we perceive and interact?
