I am curious.
I enjoy working with people.
I am motivated to make an impact.
I am a product designer based in San Francisco 🌉. I believe that great design starts with understanding the needs and emotions of the end users. It's not just about creating aesthetically pleasing products but also crafting experiences that resonate with and enhance the lives of the people who use them.
Became an Aggie @ UC Davis
After high school, I became an Aggie at UC Davis, but like many students, I wasn't quite sure what I wanted to do. I chose design as my major, intrigued by the world of product design. It wasn't a specific moment but a series of classes and experiences that ignited my passion for the intricate dance between people and products.
Graduated at 2021
Graduating in 2021 was a success, yet bittersweet. The world was going through the challenges of COVID, and my family couldn't join the celebration. Despite the distance, those four years were a canvas of self-discovery. I discovered my love for product design, creating a profound connection between people and the objects that enrich their lives.
My First Job
Landing my first job as a UX/UI Designer marked a new chapter. Even we worked remotely, the team became my mentors, and each project was an opportunity for growth. Through challenges, I built my skills and delivered work that resonated with both users and stakeholders.
Going Back Home
But then came a big decision - should I move back home to Taiwan? After all, I hadn't lived there in almost a decade. The familiar had changed, and I embraced the lessons of adapting to change.
Here I am again!
I wanted to become a better product designer and make a greater impact. So, I made the bold decision to come back to the US, even though it wasn't the prime period for job searching. But why wait for opportunities to come to me when I can go out and discover them myself? I'm ready for whatever challenges come my way, and I'm excited to see where this journey takes me!
