About
Jaynie Ng
Hi there! I'm Jaynie 👋
I like untangling messy problems and turning them into delightful, human-centred experiences.
My 9-5s have been in translating complex worlds like life insurance and industrial automation into technology solutions. My happy place is where data, design and delivery meet, to ship work that is thoughtful, useful and even a lil' bit joyful.
What I Do
Translate complexity into digital experiences that make sense
Blend data, design and insights to bring ideas from "huh?" to "aha!"
Build things with personality — warm, intuitive, human
