ANNA HO

👆 even my name is balanced

I was born in Houston, Texas but now live in Austin, where I work with other designers, developers, and product owners to create user-friendly digital products. I'm passionate about design and enjoy exploring new ideas and technology. I believe in clean communication and simplicity. When I am not staring at pixels on the screen, you can find me in my studio making functional pottery pieces and poking around nurseries picking out my next plant victim.

Versatile by nature, a compassionate human who gravitates toward simple, clean, and balance design aesthetics.

I am someone who is enthusiastic, creative, and sociable. I am diplomatic and fiercely independent, with a positive attitude towards life. I strive for balance in all areas of my life and am always curious, and exploring new ideas.

I love a good questionnaire, or birth chart to help me pull all my personality traits together
