Lee Kim Koon is a digital designer focusing on both brand and interface design. Her professional practice, Paone Creative, is a digital design studio that specializes in identity and website development for brands located in Vancouver, B.C. and globally from the United States to Europe.
I believe designers play a key role in the development and success of an organization — that problem solving skills, such as design thinking, and a sense of curiosity can be formed in university and ensure a successful career.
We can use the research and problem-solving skills developed for design to solve larger systemic issues and make an impact in today's world.
I strongly believe that both brand designers and illustrators can make great interactive designers. Interactive design benefits when we make our experiences more human.
