Hi, I am Yerim Lee.
I design AI for a more
empathetic world.
I am a researcher and designer interested in how people experience and make sense of AI systems. My work focuses on designing agentic AI and tools for AI-generated content, with an emphasis on shaping meaningful interactions between humans and AI. I approach AI not only as a technical system, but as an experiential medium that influences how people think, feel, and act. With a background in content convergence, I work across design research, prototyping, and UX design to develop AI systems that are both functional and experientially grounded.
