Hi, my name is Simon, I'm a Product/UX designer with 8+ years of industry experience including Fintech, Travel, Education, Gaming, Job Search, and SaaS.

I'm originally from Taiwan then moved to Japan in 2017, currently based in Sydney, Australia. I've been sharing my design experiences and learnings with local communities. I'm also a design educator who has launched two online design courses with a total of 4,000+ enrolled students.

My design career covers various environments such as startups, design agencies, freelancing, and multinational corporation. I'm now working at Indeed designing job search experiences for Japanese job seekers.

I'm passionate about UI design, UX design, DesignOps, and building design systems. I like to tackle complex problems with simple solutions.

I'm happy to share with you how I grew as a designer, also provide any advice to help you to achieve your next career goal. Talk to you soon!
