Karen Lum

UX Designer

San Francisco

I graduated from Stanford University with a liberal arts major called "Science, Technology & Society" and absolutely no idea of what to do with my life or how I was going to find a job. Fast forward 5 years, I have built a fulfilling career as a UX Designer and Video Producer, and am passionate about helping other newcomers navigate Step 1 of their tech careers. I also have a Youtube channel called Womanly State of Mind, where I make videos to empower young women to become independent adults.

As an instructor at General Assembly, I believe in everyone's potential. Everyone can become a rockstar at something with the right resources, support, and network. I absolutely love teaching, so it is my pleasure to support you in your journey!
