Summer Chang

I'm Summer,|

I'm a product designer who designs and ships — iOS apps and websites, end to end. I take ideas from research to design to a built, launched product, with AI as my building partner. This past year I've shipped several apps to the App Store solo, from first sketch to live. I love making things real and exploring what a designer can build when AI is part of the process. I'm currently open to new challenges.

VALUES

What I Value

Curiosity-Driven

I build at the edge of design and technology. Always learning, always experimenting, always asking why.

Build in Public

I share the wins and the failures. Documenting the process in the open keeps me honest and pushes me to keep getting better.

Focused & Precise

When I'm building, I go deep and sweat the details. Calm and precise, from first sketch to shipped.
