What I'm looking for

I seek senior design roles crafting end-to-end UI/UX for SaaS and smart hardware, with mentorship opportunities and collaborative product teams.

I am a Senior UI/UX Designer with extensive experience designing SaaS platforms, smart hardware HMI, and web/mobile interfaces, combining visual design, motion, and interactive installation work to deliver polished user experiences. I have mentored junior designers, led small teams, and contributed to product design across Alibaba Cloud and related projects, producing design patents and conference publications.

My background includes an MFA in Creative Media and a BEng in Industrial Design, with strengths in Sketch, Figma, Mastergo, Cinema 4D, Blender, After Effects, and front-end basics. I prioritize pragmatic, user-centered solutions that scale across apps, mini programs, and hardware interfaces while fostering team growth and design excellence.
