Visual & UX/UI Designer
My name is Jingzhou, and I’m a UX/UI designer and artist based in Vancouver with a strong passion for games and visual storytelling. I have a background in Graphic Design from Sichuan University and a degree in Interaction Design from Emily Carr University of Art and Design. I’ve worked as a visual and UX/UI designer at a Y Combinator-backed startup specializing in Web3 and AI, where I was the sole UX/UI designer on a variety of projects. My role involved creating 2D and 3D assets using Blender and Unreal Engine and designing over 150+ prototypes for innovative AI application explorations. This experience allowed me to build a versatile skill set that spans visual design, user experience, and interactive prototype
