HERE'S A LITTLE ABOUT ME
Making Design for Good Better
Hello there! I’m Donovan Tan, a UX designer and educator with a passion for using design to make a difference. Commercially, I have been in the industry for more than a decade now. So far, I’ve learned that good design isn’t just about looking great—it's about creating positive change.
Throughout my career, I've been lucky enough to receive a few awards for my work in design and entrepreneurship. These are nice nods to what I love doing: crafting designs that matter and teaching the next generation of designers.
My goal is to make the world a little better through smart, thoughtful design. In my portfolio, you’ll find a mix of projects that showcase just that. From practical, user-friendly designs to innovative educational approaches, it’s all about making an impact.
Take a look around, see what catches your eye, and feel free to reach out if you want to chat about design, teaching, or anything in between!
