About me

I’m a hybrid experience design leader of equal parts strategy, product & service innovation, interaction design and communication design. Based on a foundation of understanding the aspirations and behavior of real people in their everyday lives, I lead multidisciplinary teams to design meaningful products and services for home, work, or on the go.

Give & Receiving Feedback

When giving feedback I try to provide feedback using the “Love Sandwich Method”. I would begin with a positive, constructive comment on something that works well in the design that is being critiqued. Then I get to the meat part, which is constructive criticism, what areas could be improved. Last, I will end with another piece of a positive acknowledgment. If I’m providing feedback in written form, I would try to organize my feedback and prioritize the feedback base on the level of effort. In terms of receiving feedback, I always welcome and willing to hear people’s opinions. Whether it’s about my work, my work style, my work quality. I love honesty and brutal truth, communicate in a straightforward manner and I won’t take it personally :)

What’s Up After Hours?

I’m a pretty good swimmer, and won my first goal medal at age six. I’m adventurous and love to dive into new experiences and try new things. Even though I’m an introvert, I always open to grow and learn new things. I’m a quick to listen and slow to speak the type of person, and love reading human psychology books in my down time. Early in the morning and after work, you’ll find me walking my dog in the park.

Books

Adventure
