about me关于我

Skylar portrait

A designer who notices feelings, systems, and tiny details.一个会同时留意感受、系统和小细节的设计者。

I am currently studying UX at the University of Michigan. My work usually starts from a simple question: where does this experience make people pause, worry, repeat themselves, or feel unsure? I like research because it makes abstract users feel real, and I like interaction design because small changes can make someone’s day feel easier.我目前在密歇根大学学习 UX。我的设计通常从一个很简单的问题开始:这个体验在哪里让人停住、担心、重复解释,或者不知道下一步该做什么?我喜欢研究,因为它会让抽象的“用户”变成真实的人;也喜欢交互设计,因为一个很小的改动,真的可能让别人的一天轻松一点。

Design direction设计方向UX research, interaction design, product thinking, visual storytelling.UX 研究、交互设计、产品思考、视觉叙事。
How I work我的工作方式Careful, curious, emotionally aware, and willing to iterate.细心、好奇、能感知情绪,也愿意反复迭代。
Creative side创作面Singing, photography, light, rhythm, and small human moments.唱歌、摄影、光线、节奏,还有生活里细小的人味瞬间。
What keeps me going让我有动力的事Helping people feel less lost, less stressed, and more understood.让别人少一点困惑,少一点压力,多一点被理解的感觉。

some fun facts ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ一些关于我的小事 ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ

personality人格类型ISFP · observant empathISFP · 细腻的共情者Quietly observant, sensitive to tone, and often drawn to work that feels human rather than purely technical.安静地观察,对语气和感受很敏锐,也更容易被有人味的工作吸引,而不只是技术本身。
zodiac strengths星盘里的优势Capricorn Sun · Cancer Moon · Libra Rising太阳摩羯 · 月亮巨蟹 · 上升天秤This combination points to practical ambition, emotional depth, strong observation, compassion, adaptability, charm, and a natural sense of balance. In design, I read this as: build carefully, notice what others miss, and make things feel considerate without losing structure.这个组合对应的优点包括务实的行动力、情感深度、敏锐观察、同理心、适应力、亲和感,以及对平衡的天然追求。放到设计里,我会理解成:认真搭结构,注意别人容易忽略的细节,并让体验既有秩序,也有照顾人的感觉。
