Hello, I'm Quan!
I am a Vietnamese-born award-winning designer and illustrator based in Orlando, Florida. I possess a passion for executing unique and creative projects in innovative ways. With a strong focus on creativity, I have gained versatile expertise throughout my career.
I have discovered that design serves as a visual medium to tell stories. My abilities with designing have gained my passion through the process of highly detailed problem solving, researching, sketching, and developing mockups.
In addition to my love for design and solving problems, I am also passionate about making videos, capturing photography, and learning lots of languages allowing me to connect with diverse audiences in many challenging ways. I am genuinely grateful for the opportunities that I have had in the field of design, and I remain committed to making a positive impact each day.
