Hello, my name is Samuel.
I got into product design because I'm deeply passionate about technology and how it profoundly changes our way of living. For the past 10 years, I have been solving users and business problems and delivering delightful interfaces & experiences across domains like web3, finance, and travel industries.
My Journey
Interned at Apple
Majoring in Arts in college, I took a gap year working for Apple's iTunes & App Store team. This valuable experience cultivated my interest and knowledge in digital products.
Co-founding an agency
With growing freelance web & design projects, I co-founded a digital agency after graduation. Me and my team helped small businesses, entrepreneurs, and non-profits launching their projects.
Lead product design
After that, I transitioned to start-up & corporations as a prdouct designer to lead design projects in travel, banking and crypto industries.
