Bio
Jonathan Oen-Lee, MBA, ACLP
Over six months in 2021, I had a front row seat in watching Elvin grow from student to a class leader, followed by instructional associate to a UX designer. From the outset of class, Elvin showed a willingness for self-reflection, risk-taking and critical thinking — three qualities required for a successful UX design career. Between his first and third project, Elvin found his UX voice in remarkable fashion, confidently composing and presenting a persona story that remains memorable to this day; it was so effective, many students reached out to Elvin to learn a few tips (and directly to me, requesting to partner with him on future projects). I was happy when Elvin decided to continue his journey as an instructional associate — his passion for coaching and student growth allowed him to teach from the heart, bringing a vulnerability to his coaching and instruction was not at all surprising. Today, Elvin brings his commitment to his UX craft, collaboration, and design leadership into his professional role, and I'm honored to be have been a guide in his journey.

Elvin is, without a doubt, the most reliable and dedicated teammate that anyone could ask for. I had the pleasure of working together with him in GA's 12- weeks UX Immersive Course. Strong in communication and having a great ability to hold people's attention, he was able to bring across unique perspectives and thought processes to the class we were supporting. Elvin is also creative and resourceful in the way he planned activities and lessons for the class. He will be a valuable asset to any team that he is a part of.
