Yixuan LiuProduct Designer Let’s talk

Design is how I think. Building is how I prove it.

I was drawn to design through my interest in art, but also through a curiosity about how things work. I wanted to understand how an idea takes shape, how the pieces fit together, and how people experience the result.

That curiosity led me toward the intersection of design and technology. Coding gives me a way to work through problems with logic and precision, while design gives me room to explore, interpret, and imagine. I enjoy moving between the two—finding structure in a creative idea and discovering new possibilities within a technical constraint.

What interests me most is the process of making things. I like breaking a problem down, questioning assumptions, and trying different approaches to see what each one reveals. A sketch, a prototype, or a piece of code can all help me think. Seeing an idea become something tangible often raises questions I would never have found by thinking about it alone.

This shapes how I approach my work: with curiosity, a willingness to experiment, and attention to both the details and the wider experience. I care about how something looks, how it behaves, and how naturally it fits into someone's life.

I'm continuing to explore how design and technology can come together to create thoughtful, useful experiences. That space between analytical thinking and creative exploration is where I feel most at home.

I BRIDGE DESIGN CRAFT & AI

  1. AI-Driven Design

    I use AI throughout my design process—from exploring ideas and research to refining concepts and speeding up execution.

  2. Figma + Figma MCP

    I connect design and implementation through Figma and MCP, making it easier to turn design decisions into working interfaces.

  3. Vibe Coding Prototypes

    I turn ideas into interactive prototypes with AI-assisted coding, so I can test experiences beyond static screens.

  4. End-to-End Thinking

    I connect user problems, product decisions, interactions, and outcomes—designing the whole experience rather than isolated screens.

Let's talk if you're building something that makes life a little better.
