Hi, I’m Kyla! I’m a UX designer based in Seattle, WA.
I bring a strategic, systems-minded approach to design and a knack for simplifying the complex. With over five years of design experience across a variety of mediums, I’d like to say I work somewhere at the intersection of creativity and data-informed design.
As a UX designer at Expeditors, I lead design efforts for a handful of the company’s subsidiaries, owning features from end-to-end for each product. I design both internal and external tools, and have contributed to full legacy application modernization/redesigns, design system building, as well as UX for new and emerging products. In my day-to-day, I work closely with product, business, and dev teams to regularly ship features that address real-world supply chain challenges.
Outside of Figma, you’ll probably find me somewhere in the mountains, walking around Lake Union, biking, doing yoga, finding new music, doodling, or scheming my future travels.

What's with the chair?
We all know this chair: the plastic chair that is present at every backyard event or hole-in-the-wall restaurant you’ve ever been to. Usually cracked or missing at least one leg, this chair is still one of the most universally recognized objects in the world.
Despite its flaws, this chair represents consistency, accessibility, and a scalable foundation: all of which are core qualities of good UX. It’s simple, familiar, and dependable enough to work in almost any environment, even when it’s a little broken.
It’s a helpful reminder that good UX is about simplifying the complex. At the end of the day, everyone needs a place to sit. Why not make it easy?
