Design always amaze me on how it could shape the world and influence people and their perspective

It all comes down to understanding and empathising with people to deliver the experience that with influence their behaviours and perspectives. That's why I love design and continue to expand my knowledge into other areas, such as analysis, coding, and business, to make sure that I always have what it takes to deliver the right experience.

2012

Industrial design

Bachelor in Industrial Design, 2:1 Upper second class honor

It is a big melting pot of design. I get to learn about everything in design from pottery, jewellery, graphic, service, sustainability, to manufacturing. Which lead me to develop extensive skills in all aspects on top of UX/UI design in order to be able to understand and create the right experience regardless of the medium.
