I ❤️Emerging Technology 🛠, Storytelling🔮, and Creative Design🎨
Hi, I’m Bowen 😎
An interaction designer with a technology background, living in Bay Area after a long run in Singapore.
I am currently a master student 🎓at UC Berkeley with a passion for experience design. I studied Computing as an undergrad at National University of Singapore back in 2016. After that, I spent the next 3 years working as a Product Analyst and Product Manager in the Finance and Tech industry in Singapore. My dream is to leverage my design and technical skills together with my diverse cultural background to create more appealing experience for users of the technology industry and themed entertainment industry.
There are two things that sparked my interest in experience design. The first one is the IDEO shopping cart video. When I first watched that video, I was impressed by its new way of problem solving using design thinking. I love the human-centered solution since I can tell how much the designers care about the users and details.
The other thing is my experience at Walt Disney World. When I went to Walt Disney World 5 years ago, I used my magic band on my wrist to enter the theme park, purchased a Mickey shape ice cream, and even used it to unlock my hotel room. During my 5 days at Walt Disney World, I truly enjoyed myself going everywhere with a simple magic band. This really inspired my interest in design wonderful experience for people.
I am a big fan of theme parks! I have been to all the Disneylands in the world except for the one in Paris. I have always touched by the breathtaking experience and amazing memories theme parks created. I Hope one day I can create the magical experience to people! 🏰
