About me

👋 I'm Marcus, a learner, a problem solver, and a digital product designer from Hong Kong with over 7 years of experience in the industry. My primary focus is on creating experiences that bring a positive impact to both businesses and users, as well as developing and maintaining design systems that enhance user experience and ensure visual consistency for businesses. I have worked with both agencies and startups, gaining diverse experiences and skills.

When I'm not immersed in design or development, you can find me visiting art galleries and exhibitions, reading books, or learning new things.

Design is a Collaborative Process

I find great joy in working alongside diverse teams to bring ideas to life and try to see things from their perspective. Collaborating with engineers, developers, managers, and other cross-functional partners is an essential part of the design process.

Communication Comes First

Whether we're tackling business constraints, aligning with design systems, or incorporating constructive feedback, I believe open and transparent communication is key. By maintaining clear and honest dialogues, we can navigate challenges and capitalize on opportunities.

Simple Solutions to Complex Problems

People have enough problems to deal with every day. In a world filled with intricate challenges, my mission is to transform intricate challenges into intuitive solutions. By breaking down complex problems into their core components, we can identify straightforward solutions that are both effective and sustainable.
