Hello again!

I'm Aijia (eye-jah), a designer originally from Shanghai, China and currently based in Davis, CA. I’m a senior at the University of California, Davis, pursuing my B.A. in Design.

As a kid, I dreamed of becoming an "inventor", making people's lives easier and better with my inventions. Today, I'm still driven by that passion. I believe designers hold significant roles in the society, shaping how we live and interact. I want to be one that designs intentionally. I aim to keep functionality, accessibility, and sustainability in mind, and think beyond just the "design". I want to use design as a tool of communication, to advocate for those marginalized and raise awareness about important issues. I'll keep designing and redesigning, finding the better solutions, and make the world a tad better, one design at a time.

When I’m not designing, you can find me crocheting/knitting, drinking boba, climbing, or playing Ultimate Frisbee!!
