I’m Lexi Qiao,

a designer drawn to visual storytelling, interaction, and thoughtful digital experiences.

I’m an Interactive Arts and Technology student at Simon Fraser University. My work often sits between UI/UX, branding, interactive media, and visual storytelling, with a focus on creating experiences that feel clear, cohesive, and engaging.

I’m especially drawn to projects that balance structure with feeling. Whether I’m designing an interface, building a visual identity, or shaping a narrative project, I pay close attention to hierarchy, tone, pacing, and how the experience comes together as a whole.

Right now, I’m most interested in UI/UX, interaction design, visual systems, and digital experiences that feel considered from both a functional and aesthetic perspective. Outside of design, I enjoy photography, drawing, badminton, and hands-on creative hobbies like perler bead art and miniature scene building stickers.
