Hi there! I'm Shay (they/them) — a 🇻🇳 🇦🇺 Product Designer who codes draws.
I was born a Sunday's child in the Central Highlands of Vietnam. As an adult, I spend my days creating pictures mixed with some texts & then releasing them to the internet.
Current
💻 Design:
- I'm designing & consulting at madeup.studio 🚀, my own little Product Design Studio — located in Sydney, while working with clients from all over the world.
- I also curate a Product Design Database site called MakeStuffUp.Info. Check it out for the latest tools & resources to help you build your online business without coding.
🎨 Art: Besides design digital products, I also make digital art.
✍ Writing: Join my newsletter to take a peek inside my brain.
