AboutMe

[About Me]

Welcome to my purple maze!
‍
Hi, l’m Qiana. I have been in the UX industry for almost three years. But the day I felt like I am a real designer which is I finished the first version of my website. I didn’t view this portfolio as a required task. Instead, l built it as do the branding of myself. I made the logo, slogan, and even the seasonal campaign. This is my personal space, I don’t need to care about users, stakeholders, or any other team members. I only need to follow my heart, choose my color, my font and my style.

I am a creative person who embraces the challenges, I am always willing to try something new. I never afraid of walking on the roundabout way, but I am afraid of losing the way which is I cannot find the meaningful things of my life. In my opinions, a whole life of each human being is like a film, and each one of us is the director of our own life, so l embrace every challenges and changes of my life, every parts of my experiences make how l am today, and hopefully l can also be the marvel hero of my own film eventually.

Recently, I am so excited to find my meaningful thing which is making a Web3 mentality app that aggregates all of my past passions and skills. I remembered I have always dreamed of reading people’s minds during my growth, until today I realized that my approach to this dream is EMemory. This dream is not easy to reach, but I am getting close to it step by step.

[Design Philosophy]

Less is More

No Prefect Design

Problem Solving

As a designer, we always think of adding more functions to make user interface more abundant. But it confuses the users and make them overwhelming. Simple, easy and intuitive UI actually guide user in a better way, especially for accessibility design.

In the quick pace of internet age, the product is iterated very frequently, so we don’t need to pursuit a prefect design of product MVP. We will redesign and challenge the initial assumption after different rounds of tests again and again.

The design is driven by the purpose of the product rather than the aesthetics. Our job is to find a solution or opportunity through the uncertainties. Creating pleasing and meaningful experiences for most users is always a critical criterion of success.
