I truly enjoy synthesising research insights and generating innovative design ideas. This process has naturally guided me to become a user experience designer. where I get to blend these elements to create impactful and effective solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Q3<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>YL: As an experienced designer, I focus on creating designs that help customers understand products and enhance their overall experience with them. I work across various media to ensure that our products are not only functional but also user-friendly and engaging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>IK: I\u2019m currently based in New York, where I work at a software company designing platforms to build efficient data pipelines.
