I'm currently seeking for a job in the field of User Experience and/or Interaction Design.
My interest lies in Interface and Information Design because I'm excited about...
1) creating means for people to have effective, pleasant and enriching experiences in getting their job done and interacting with others, and
2) dealing with complexity and turning raw data and resources to something purposeful and meaningful.
I consider problems are opportunites.

I'm fascinated by how well-conceived designs,
coupled with technologies, can bring benefits to our everyday lives.

When solving problems, I always try to grasp the holistic picture and the details using my analytic and intuitive mind with right balance.
Where and What Do You Want to Eat?
Kiosk Interface for Food Vendor Information for Campus Visitors
CHALLENGE
The project focused on learning Action Script 3.0 and applying it to designing a kiosk interface of any kind. An iterative design process—testing the interface, reporting its usability issues, and improving the design based on the feedback was required.
QUESTIONS
How would people want to search for a place to eat?
SOLUTION
This is a touch-based kiosk interface designed for Carnegie Mellon visitors or new students who aren't yet familiar with the campus. Users can retrieve the information about the location of food vendors by filtering by campus building or food type.
Click here to launch the interface.
