Eric in his natural habitat

👋 Oh hey, I'm Eric!

I'm a designer with a passion for bringing ideas to life. Originally from Taiwan, I grew up in Canada and now I call the PNW (Seattle, WA) my home!

I'm constantly coming up with new ways to reinvent stuff or old techniques for the new. Lately, my learning flame has been burning bright with cooking, baking, woodworking, darkroom chemistry (it's like science/magic all-in-one!), coding, and even building circuits.

Where to find me? Probably at the local bouldering gym or taking photos on a sunny day.

🎨 I am a product designer

It all started at a young age, around 8, when I really got into coloring and working on art projects. I'd spend hours crafting epic covers for school projects and obsessing over color palettes. Fast forward to college, where I went deeper into the world of design for the digital age, learning about print publication, architecture, and web design at SFU in Vancouver, Canada. There, I met a whole bunch of like-minded creatives, and together we embarked on some wild startup adventures across North America!

For the past 10+ years, I've been leading design teams building user-centered products. I design by working closely with product and engineering teams, translating user needs into impactful features, and building design systems for efficiency and consistency.

Previously, at Ledger Investing, I led the design and development of online platforms and resources, working closely with product managers and the engineering team to execute our roadmap.

Prior to that, I was a UX designer working at Amazon AWS for the Developer tools team. I improved features for CodePipeline and CodeStar, conducted user research, and ensured smooth design handoffs. Before that I worked at Cloudflare, as the first UX hire. I streamlined UI components, established their first design system, and fostered a global design presence across 3 international offices.

Currently, I’m looking to join a team that pushes the boundaries of design's impact. My goal is to bridge the gap between design and other teams. By building tools, systems, and processes, even small individual impacts can lead to meaningful change at scale.
