about
Hi, this is Wilson Wu!
UX designer currently works
@ Youtube | Google
Instead of being a skyscraper, I always consider myself a bridge, which connects, communicates and conduces. I have an enthusiastic attitude that is contagious to all of my colleagues. Therefore, I devote myself to be a facilitator. Not only in the professional environment but also in creating a positive relationship between people and technology.
I have an academic background in industrial design and HCI, professional experience as a Product Designer, creating positive impacts for startups, in-house teams, agencies, and freelance projects across the world.
From a holistic standpoint of different design faculties, I can identify the many and various factors that have an impact on a complex situation and converge it into a systematic design strategy.
My specialties include user experience design, interaction design, visual communication, and industrial design.

more about me...
I come from Taiwan. One of the most cultural-diverse islands in Asia.
I believe that being a good facilitator is the key to being a good designer.
I love museums and exhibitions, and have experience in curating.
Try to master the art of
"Not taking yourself too seriously."
I like experimenting, and yes, sometimes it leads to a thrilling big mess.
On the weekend, you can find me enjoying ice cream at the beach.
