I’m a multidisciplinary designer passionate about connecting visual and interaction design. I traverse cultures and environments to create universal brands, systems and experiences. With a multidisciplinary and multicultural background, I always bring a human-centered empathy and a growth mindset into my problem-solving process and craftsmanship. I worked in boutique studios and agencies in Hong Kong, big tech and startups in San Francisco, and now in brand innovation consultancy in London – adapting to each diverse client and industry I design for.
