So…why design?

I enjoy the power of logic and art, and even more when they are combined to solve problems. My experience as a former debater shaped the way I identify and approach problems in the design process and equipped me with the ability to think critically and logically. On the other hand, growing up with the passion about art, I am always delighted when I see aesthetically-pleasing artifacts and have the impulse to create some of them on my own. These experiences and passions have driven me to work towards designing experiences/products that possess a balance between usability and aesthetics.

What else do I enjoy?

• visualizing the fantasies in my head into vivid graphics 🖌 — illustrations, drawings, and watercolor paintings. Recently, I’ve been really into digital illustration and have been experimenting with artistic creation on my iPad.

• exploring different food places 🍔 and coffee shops ☕️

• learning new languages (currently working on my Japanese 🇯🇵）

• baking 🍞+ cooking healthy recipes

• exercising 🏃

• watching youtube videos 👀
