Hey there, I'm Ryan Flynn!
I'm a UX Designer based in the Greater NYC Area with a passion for creating intuitive experiences that seamlessly blend form and function. Currently, I'm leading design initiatives at Chefman, where I transform complex cooking technology into approachable, elegant experiences that home chefs love.
My approach combines deep user empathy with strategic problem-solving. Whether I'm redesigning a blender's control scheme or simplifying the setup process for an air fryer, I believe in finding the perfect balance between aesthetic vision and practical usability.
Take a look at my selected case studies below to see how I tackle complex design challenges and transform them into intuitive, engaging experiences.

Chefman Obliterator
As lead UX designer for Chefman's premium Obliterator smart blender, I balanced innovative technology with intuitive controls by developing a sophisticated Auto-Blend system that intelligently determines optimal consistency.
