About
My portfolio website: https://fangrudesigns.com/
I’ve been in the tech industry for 8 years. Currently, I'm part of the UX team at Amazon Vancouver team. Prior, I was leading the design efforts for the quoting and proposal solution at Stellar Labs, a startup that is building out an operation management system for business aviation. I'm also part of our user experience research initiatives, in order to establish a scalable research process in a fast-paced startup. Before that, I was mostly working in the Fintech space and have worked on major brands such as AmexCanada, CIBC, TD Bank, and MasterCard. I’m skilled at UX strategy, rapid prototyping, and building a consistent design system.
I'd be happy to speak with those who are curious about any of the areas I have experience in. I've mentored many aspiring UX/UI designers and would love to share what I've learned so far with you. If you're new to design or are established in your career and looking to improve skills, build your portfolio, or plan your next move I can help.

Choosing Fangru as my mentor for UX is definitely one of the best choices in my learning curve. She's a super qualified UX expert and one of the most positive and optimistic mentors I have ever met. I contacted Fangru because I recently got a job requiring me to look deeper into UX. I was in a situation of not feeling confident about my skills and everything related to it. Fangru came and cleared the way and guided me on what to do, she never stopped sharing her best expertise and checking on my work and steps. She helped me think through my workload and which areas to prioritize and examine my work. She always explains everything in detail, giving objective insight, and inspires me with her genius problem-solving ideas. After the mentorship with her, I gained so much more confidence. I highly recommend her to those of you who want to learn about UX in deeper.
