Hi, there!

I'm Dionne, a lifetime UX / UI designer, a part-time motion designer, illustrator, and game developer with a degree in interaction design at Emily Carr University Art & Design

I believe good design seeks the fine balance between function, aesthetics, and user-friendly experiences that make technology more approachable to people.

Me & Design +

The combination of technology and creativity within interaction design makes it so compelling to me, and I enjoy the way multidisciplinary disciplines are brought together via visual storytelling to create seamless experiences, as I feel rewarded and motivated when I see people engaged and dedicated to the design.

My creative abilities are always pushed to their limits whenever I design for it!

My Design Approach

CHECK!

01 Learn: I will start understanding the market problem and project goal. After I got a clear vision of where the market is and where it is going, learning about competitors and user needs, I take action.

CHECK!

02 Think: Identify the project and its context, then design a strategy with the client based on the target audience and customer journey. Next, design some raw flows to map the features of the product.

CHECK!

03 Make: When the concept is approved, I'll create a detailed design of the product based on my mood board of visual trends and understanding of the user's problems and needs. Each project ends with clean Figma files based on a digital guideline.

My Values

Always be learning

I belives humans are constant works in progress that need to receive feedback in order to grow. I am always looking for ways to improve myself, so I like to learn new software, read blogs, and Behance on new projects in my spare time.

Stay humble

It doesn't matter whether you are the president, manager, homeless, or average kid on the street. Treat others with respect as you would yourself because ultimately, we are all humans sharing the same wants and needs and facing our battles every day. Stay true to yourself and stay true to others.

Embrace creativity

Everyone needs to recharge from creative burnout - else, we will go insane! When I am not in my creative zone, I like snowboarding, hiking, and sculpting artworks as a form of meditation.

The world is multicultural

Being a Chinese Canadian, I am fascinated with various cultures! It is a true joy for me to find out about common behaviors in different cultures and the foundational values behind them. I believe that nowadays we should always think about how our designs would be perceived around the world - What could be offensive, unclear, or useless?
