about me

I'm a Designer who focuses on telling stories through products by being an empathetic & attentive listener.

And bad user reviews on App Store.

Hi, I'm Nam, a 25 years old UI UX / Product Designer.

I started my career as a Social Media Guru for start-up companies and had great opportunities to learn about storytelling and how to gain engagement from the audience. By having these skills, I was able to bring a life into product design. I want to tell stories through the design of a product.

As a designer, I understand the importance of data analysis, research, wire-framing, prototyping and usability testing. I believe the key to design a good product is to be a good listener and user-centered designs come from a user-center workflow.

During my time working for both start-ups and big corporations, I was lucky to be led and to lead a team. This helped me acknowledge that to be a good team player, you need to understand from both sides.

When I'm not designing, you'll find me playing a lot of games which leads me to appreciate the hard-work of the artists and inspires me to be more creative.

A simple platform that guides users to draw different objects. The project was created from HTML, CSS, & JavaScript. Users can also download their arts from the platform.
