ABOUT ME

 

Batu Caves, Malaysia

I’m a designer who thrives on creativity and adventure.

I’m also an avid runner gearing up for the Chicago Marathon in October 2023. My wanderlust has taken me to 46 countries, even leading me to find my life partner on the road. I’m also a proud father, finding inspiration in every aspect of life.

When I’m not at my day job*, you can catch me reading thrillers or baking all kinds of cakes – a skill I honed during grad school to de-stress. If I weren’t in design, I’d easily be on stage, fulfilling another dream of being an actor.

*I'm currently at Slalom, where I've spent the last 9 years helping clients in various fields (e.g., legal, finance, healthcare, retail, consumer goods) create more effective and meaningful user experiences. This includes everything from better websites and mobile apps to new-and-improved phone call handling and hospital triage systems.

In addition to designing and prototyping in Figma, I’m leading internal and client-facing workshops, supporting clients with their business strategies and goals, working on sales pursuits, mentoring / promoting career advancement, and leading diversity and inclusiveness training.

I also started my own business. My wife and I co-founded Mubdian – check us out!
