I am a...
Designer that breaks down internal walls between physical, digital, and service design.
👆🏻 Sound fancy isn’t it? Actually I am simply a problem solver that hyper aware of user needs and business goals. Flex between the bigger picture and concrete problems, and translate business problems and requirements into useful and compelling design solutions.
I believe in the bigger picture - how to use design to bring value to you, and you.
Don’t get me wrong, I love all those visual and pixel perfect(who doesn’t?). But I love to talk not only about the visual and the experience but also the value, the business, and how we establish, both solution and culture.
I believe we can inspire each other by sharing our knowledge and experience. Always fascinated how much I can learn by sharing and coaching.
I am a design mentor in DesignLab and IDF, teaching design thinking and UX research and strategy. I also host and facilitate workshops and events for professional and coaching purpose.
It’s an honor to have Howard as the mentor in the early stage of my career. He genuinely cares about others and always motivates me to become a better designer by sharing his knowledge in the digital product and strategic design fields.
Howard always has great resources to share with students for reference. He is quickly able to go into detail of how I could differentiate my work from other students when other designers/mentors just said that my portfolio looked good.
