hi, i'm taylor ✧˚ ༘ ⋆。 ˚

I'm an enthusiastic designer, passionate about solving complex challenges through empathy, creative thinking, and a unique blend of both industrial and UX design skills.

My fascination for creating tangible, functional products that enhance people's lives led me to specialize in industrial design, where I honed in my skills in product development, materials, and the user experience.

Throughout my early career, I started to recognize the increasing importance of digital experiences. This realization prompted me to venture into UX design, where I leverage my strong foundation in design thinking to craft user-centered digital solutions.


Outside of design, my interests include working out, traveling, taking lots of pictures, asian comfort food, stationery, and digital illustration ⋆ ˚。⋆୨୧˚
