ABOUTME
Product designer 🎨
Spin class fiend 🚴🏻♀️
Travel enthusiast ✈️
Self-proclaimed Michelin-star chef 👩🏻🍳
Hello! My name is Amanda o(>ω<)o
From my early days at a specialized visual arts high school, where I immersed myself in painting and multi-media art, to earning a pre-law undergraduate degree that sharpened my problem-solving and decision-defending skills, my journey has always been guided by creativity and analytical thinking. Now, as a product designer, I channel my artistic passion into solving complex user problems, creating beautiful interfaces that simplify complex problems and provide immersive digital experiences.
When I’m not deep in the weeds of unravelling and deconstructing problems or passionately advocating for auto-layout in Figma, you can find me going on hikes, travelling, visiting aesthetic cafes, or cooking up my next Michelin-star meal (jk).
I am constantly striving to be a better designer. My goal one day is to be a compassionate, open minded, and approachable design leader, but for now, I’m having a blast designing cool things and exploring everything that design has to offer.
Why you’d benefit from working with me:
Proven experience driving the entire design process as the sole - designer.
Expertise in collaborating with PMs, developers/engineers, sales/marketing, and other stakeholders in cross-functional teams.
Exceptional ability to produce rapid, high-quality iterative mockups.
Thrives in agile environments where I’m challenged but given room to make mistakes and explore ideas.
Self-motivated, organized, and capable of juggling multiple projects at once.
Committed to continuous growth, learning, and becoming the best version of myself.
What I'm looking for:
A dynamic, rapidly growing environment with a design team to collaborate with.
A close-knit team that excels in collaboration and constructive feedback.
A culture where every voice is valued and heard.
A team that values openness, honesty, and vulnerability.
Overall, an inspiring group of individuals dedicated to seeing each other succeed and loves creating exceptional products.
(01) Laptop. My partner, I literally couldn’t do anything without it. I carry this everywhere.
(02) Honey oat latte. My favourite coffee drink ever, a must have every morning!
(03) Sashimi. I could literally eat my body weight in sashimi... necessary body fuel.
(04) Creative inspiration. As a designer, having artistic inspiration around me is 100% necessary.
(05) Airpods. These are my lifeline. They allow me to concentrate and enjoy my creative process.
(06) Notebooks. For ideas, sketches, etc. I particularly love the Muji notebooks!!
