About
Hi there, I’m Shunrong (Sharon) Cao, a UI/UX Designer based in Toronto. I grew up as a top math and science student, but creativity was always my thing. I took the leap, studied fine arts at RISD, and later moved to Toronto for my Master’s at OCAD, where a Data Viz and A11y course sparked my passion for UI/UX, the perfect blend of logic and creativity.
Outside of work, I love exploring art and design tools, coding, and storytelling - I wrote and designed a 280k character fiction book that sold 300+ copies. Now, I bring all that creativity into crafting thoughtful digital experiences to empower lives and create joy.
