About
I'm an industrial designer. The subtleties of human behavior and emotions fascinates me.
I enjoy watching the way people respond to forms and interactions and am interested in turning such observations - especially the inner whispers that are easily overlooked - into meaningful design opportunities.
Combining passions for aesthetics, problem-solving and mechanisms, my work attempts to distill complex problems into smart, simple solutions that resonate with human habits and emotions.

I have been fortunate to be a recipient of the Lee Kuan Yew Gold Medal, and top international awards like BraunPrize, Good Design Award, IDEA Gold, IDEA Silver, Lite-On, iF Design and multiple Red Dot Best of the Best awards.
Through independent practice and his previous employment at One & Co. (San Francisco) and GRO design (Eindhoven, Netherlands), my work experience spans across names like HTC, L'Oreal, Microsoft, BMW DesignworksUSA, Dell, Google, Nokia, Philips, Sennheiser and TomTom.
Recent works: HTC EVO 4G, Google Nexus One Car Dock, T-Mobile MyTouch 4G, and Microsoft Arc Touch Mouse.

I currently work as an instructor at the National University of Singapore, and as a design partner at Stuck.
