Hey, I’m

Ran Tian

UX/UI  .   Motion  .   3D  .  Coding

Over the past 15+ years, I’ve designed across organizations of all scales—from industry leaders like Rent the Runway, 1stDibs, Frog, and Sotheby’s to global tech giants like Baidu, Microsoft, and Lenovo. Navigating fast-moving, smaller environments taught me how to embrace ambiguity and move with startup agility, while my time at major corporations established my high visual standard and obsession with pixel-perfect, production-ready execution. This dual foundation shaped me into a full-stack design lead who seamlessly bridges strategic vision with rapid, high-craft execution.

From 2016 to 2018, I stepped back to study at NYU’s ITP program, focusing on interactive technologies like creative coding, AR/VR, and 3D animation to expand my technical and creative toolkit.
