Personality
Wayne is an analytical thinker who believes logic can empower him to come up with finest decisions. But, to apply human-centric mindset in his work, listening, interacting, and observing people that he's creating experience for is necessary.
He always goes extra miles when he's interested in something.
Wayne’s been mixed roles (Product Manager + UX/UI Designer) that guided stakeholders through ambiguous problems, collaborated with various functions to align understandings of goals, and to establish a trusting partnership for delivering excellent results.
He always introduce himself in the following 3 traits:
Observant
As an attentive and considerate person labeled by my former colleagues, I often rely on my strong senses to observe and pick up details in most circumstances. They help me to notice things that people tend to overlook.
Analytical
As a highly goal-driven designer, I love being analytical towards challenges with design thinking methodologies. I enjoy discovering insights & putting together missed pieces of complex problems. Those “Ah-ha” moments are always inspirational and rewarding.
Conscientious
Getting job done is always my key driving force, the idea that “I want it to work” motivate me significantly and I also have strong adaptability to support that. I always go extra miles when I’m interested in something.
