design philosophy
empathy
There is a person behind any product or digital service. Because of this, I believe in the need of empathy and understanding. I advocate that the most innovative solutions come from a deep discovery of people.
growth and improvement
I acknowledge that failure is inevitable, and that it is crucial to succeed. Our final product will only be perfect if it has been tested, stretched, and pushed in multitude directions.
collaboration and diversity
Design is a team effort. It requires a diverse set of minds and backgrounds to come up with innovative and meaningful products. I want to learn to take risks by pushing and being pushed by others.
messy process
The process to the final solution was not meant to be linear and clear. It was meant to be iterative and messy. It is only after you learn this that you will start to see more clearly.
