LIEW ZHEN WEI
I'm a 27 years old UI/UX Designer from Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia) currently based in Johor Bahru. A passionate UI / UX designer who dabbles in art & code; I design apps, digital platforms, graphic works & campaigns on regular basis. Tend to be driven by experiments, I value collaborative process & data-driven results to create unique, meaningful visual user experiences.
Comfortable with UX design process / tools: from information architecture, wireframes, prototyping, delivering high fidelity mockups, but not limited to building style guide & art direction. I love everything that has to do with mobile app design & development and I feel a true devotion for user interface design.
I have more than 2 years of experience working with a tech co and 5 years experience working as a freelancer, but and I’m ready for visiting other countries & work for any team! I love working with people, specially if they have the same passion I have for what they do.
