About me
About 2 years ago the first
time I heard of interaction design, I was suddenly enlightened by its design
thinking. I was surprised that how a great design can really fulfill users'
needs, not only functionally, but also emotionally. I always believe design is
not just for artistic or academic exercises. Design is about creating a better
life. Since then I stepped in the way of pursuing to be a great human‐centered designer.
After
4 years study of industrial design (engineering) in China and 1 year study of interaction
design in US, my breadth of skills covers initial design research, coding,
design thinking, ideation sketching, prototype modeling, final computer
rendering and manufacturing. Except acquiring fundamental design techniques,
the experience of living in two countries and studying in two different major gives
me the ability to solve problems from different perspectives.
I've
involved several commercial projects so far, including large-scale design
researches, product design and conceptual interaction design. I strive to
develop solutions that are inviting and interesting, but also mirror the
client's core values and mission. I collaborated with my teammates to devise
creative solutions on design issues on deadlines. All the projects
significantly improved both aesthetics and usability of the current products.
Now I am ready
to accept the challenge outside of school. I'd love to apply my skills to more
real‐world human problems. I feel my education, can-do approach, self-motivation, and
enthusiasm for design would make me a true contributor in the design
field.
