Ann Chang - AI & Healthcare Product Designer

Front-End–Driven UX Design

Designing UX grounded in real implementation constraints. I design user experiences with a front-end engineer’s mindset—anticipating layout systems, interaction behavior, and build feasibility early to reduce friction between design and engineering.

What this service focuses on

UX and UI decisions grounded in real implementation constraints
Layout and interaction systems that scale across devices
Design choices that anticipate engineering trade-offs
Clear structure for smoother design-to-engineering handoff
‍

When this is most useful

Products moving from concept toward build
Teams struggling with design–engineering friction
Complex layouts or interaction-heavy interfaces
Web or product experiences that must scale and evolve

‍

Usability & Human Factors–Informed Design

This service focuses on clarity, safety, and usability—especially in complex or high-stakes environments. I approach design through a human-factors lens, aiming to reduce cognitive load, prevent errors, and ensure interfaces hold up under real-world conditions rather than ideal scenarios.

What this service focuses on

Reducing cognitive load and interface complexity
Improving clarity in workflows and decision points
Identifying usability risks and edge cases early
Designing for real usage contexts, not just ideal flows

‍

When this is most useful

Healthcare or regulated product contexts
Systems used under time pressure or stress
Tools supporting decision-making or critical actions
Products where clarity and safety matter more than visual novelty

‍

Product & Experience Structuring

Turning complex product problems into clear experience structures. I help teams define experience direction, core workflows, and system logic—making complexity manageable and aligning user needs with business and technical realities.

What this service focuses on

Early-stage or ambiguous product problems
Products with fragmented or unclear workflows
Teams needing alignment before execution
Systems that require long-term scalability

‍

When this is most useful

Experience framing and problem definition
Core workflows, task flows, and system structure
Clarifying priorities and reducing unnecessary scope
Aligning UX decisions with product and technical constraints

‍

Applied Focus: AI & Digital Healthcare

Applying UX thinking to AI-driven and healthcare-related products. My work includes concept-driven case studies in AI and digital health—exploring explainability, trust, and human-centered design in regulated or high-impact contexts.

What this focus explores

Self-initiated, non-commercial concept projects
Structured case studies grounded in real-world constraints
Explorations of future-facing but plausible product directions

‍

How this work is presented

Human-centered interaction with AI systems
Explainability and transparency in AI-assisted workflows
Trust, safety, and clarity in healthcare contexts
Multi-role experiences across users, caregivers, and professionals
