I’m a product designer that loves designing for people, products, and the people that build those products. Basically, I make cool rectangles.
Most recently, I was building design systems @ BlockFi. Currently open to new opportunities, let's chat! 🤙
Here are some rectangles I'm passionate about↓
More About Me
Growing up as a Taiwanese-American kid in Hamburg, my German was pretty bad. I had to find ways to interact with others without language, typically in the form of wild hand gestures.
As a former architect turned product designer, my skillset for creating and communicating great design is constantly evolving. I like to think I've grown past speaking in hand gestures... somewhat ✌️. These days, I connect with people by working on ideas informed by function, influenced by diverse thinking, and focused on the end user.
