I am Yuanyuan(Lara) Lin
（They/Them)
As a designer, my passion lies in crafting solutions rooted in user-centered, innovative, and empathetic design.
My favorite parts of the design process are conducting primary research and engaging in prototyping. It feels like a natural calling to observe individuals grappling with life's obstacles, no matter how small, and to offer assistance as a designer. I also like to prototype something odd but interesting with my hands.

However, I Hosted a Strong Faith in Become a UX/Product Designer…
Throughout my undergraduate pursuit, I enrolled in numerous design classes, honing skills in UX and Product Design. Outside of my professional commitments, I engage in the design and prototyping of various items. In June 2022, I took the leap and started my journey at Midea as a product designer, consolidating my experiences in both product and UX design.
