I’m a Singapore-based product designer who designs with research. I distill complex user problems and their latent emotions to design thoughtful solutions across various mediums, including services and digital applications.

Design Research

I believe understanding the problem space and scoping the brief accurately is key to a successful product. I use creative qualitative design research methodologies to see the problem from everyone’s point of view.
Ethnographic research
Contextual inquiry
Affinity diagramming

User experience design

I leverage research insights in the design phase so every detail is meticulously cared for. I go from lo-fi paper prototypes and wireframes to hi-fi screens on Figma for developer hand-off.
Interaction design
Service design
Usability testing

Communication design

This is where I got my start in design by creating print and digital collateral. I have developed brand identities for events and organisations from brand values to logo, motifs, colour and typography.

Seizoenen Project

In my 191 days on exchange in Europe, I saw the seasons change from late winter, to spring and the peak of summer. Perhaps a metaphor for the changing seasons in my 21 years on earth, this document chronicles the sights and experiences I witnessed on this journey. The process of creating this document, from the capturing to the compiling, has been cathartic for me, and I hope you will enjoy it as much as I did.
