Her work spans foundational design systems, preventive health tools, and technical projects like clinical data platforms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q1. Please give us a brief bio of yourself and your creative background.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I am an Experience\/Interaction Designer based in New York City. Currently, I am working on multiple innovative projects at Verily (formerly Google Life Sciences), including a health-oriented design system, retinal scanning devices, and an AI-powered data platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Previously, I studied at the Harvard Graduate School of Design, where I engaged in cutting-edge HCI research and explored human interaction with various mediums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q2. What made you become\/why did you choose to become a creative?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Design offers me a very unique perspective on the world, and I love it! It\u2019s a versatile discipline applicable to all industries, allowing me to explore and understand various aspects of life. This curiosity and desire to know more about the world drive my passion for design. Through design, I can merge creativity with practicality, finding innovative solutions to real-world problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, the collaborative nature of the design allows me to work with diverse groups of talents, like engineers, product managers and domain experts, gaining new insights and continuously learning. Design and creativity empower me to make a tangible impact on the world, improving experiences and fostering connections across different fields.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q3. Tell us more about your business\/company, job profile and what you do.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>I am an Interaction Designer at Verily (formerly Google Life Sciences). My work spans various areas, including foundational design systems, preventive health management tools, and highly technical projects like clinical data platforms. Collaborating with world-class researchers and utilizing cutting-edge technology has been an amazing journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recently, I\u2019ve embarked on exciting projects in medical devices, such as designing tools that help patients perform retinal screenings with ease and clarity. This role allows me to combine my passion for design with my commitment to improving people\u2019s day-to-day lives!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q4. What does creativity mean to you? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Creativity is the spark that ignites when logic and imagination collide. It&#8217;s not just about &#8216;thinking outside the box&#8217;; it&#8217;s about realizing there might not even be a box. For example, when faced with a complex technical problem, I don&#8217;t just follow the standard troubleshooting steps. I step back and look for patterns, for connections others might miss. It&#8217;s like using a different lens to see a problem in a whole new light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q5. To you, what makes a &#8216;creative&#8217; idea and\/or design?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A truly creative idea or design not only works but also solves a problem in a way that&#8217;s elegant, efficient, or surprising. It might be something that simplifies a complex process, enhances the user experience, or simply brings a fresh perspective to a familiar challenge. The key is that it delivers real value and leaves a lasting impression.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><\/h6>\n\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><\/h6>\n\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/museaward.com\/winner-info.php?id=231082\" class=\"external\">Whiteout: Transforming snow into New energy For Communities<\/a><\/h6>\n\n\n\n<p><em><em><em><em><em><em><em><em><em><em><em>Read more about this <a href=\"https:\/\/muse.international\/?p=30356\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">interview<\/a> with Michele Mardorf from the United States, the Gold Winner of the 2024 MUSE Creative Awards.<\/em><\/em><\/em><\/em><\/em><\/em><\/em><\/em><\/em><\/em><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Zhaodi Wang, an Experience\/Interaction Designer in New York City, is working on innovative projects at Verily, formerly Google Life Sciences.
