Soobin Cho is a Ph.D. candidate and Human-Centered Design & Engineering researcher at the University of Washington with eight years of experience blending HCI, UX research, and interdisciplinary inquiry. She investigates how people form social dynamics with and through AI, translating behavioral insights into novel system designs informed by prior UX roles in industry and academic research at Seoul National University. Her background spans international studies, intelligence and information, and communications, giving her a rare mix of social-science framing and technical HCI methods. Based in Seattle, she brings practical UX research experience from Softberry and strategic communications experience from Weber Shandwick, enabling research that is both user-grounded and product-relevant. Colleagues describe her work as attentive to subtle social interactions with technology—an angle she deliberately foregrounds in designing AI-mediated social systems.
