About
My name is Truc Ho. I am a Vietnamese industrial designer currently base in Arizona, USA. After 5 years in undergrad and 1.5 year at work, I came to the US to experience new environment in both study and industry fields. I have had chance to catch up with technology trends, as well as to learn many new things here: Design thinking, Critical thinking, Design Entrepreneur, User Research Strategy, Emotional Design, etc. My goal in design is not just a product that functionally supports user but also a companion that emotionally connects with its owner.
USER EXPERIENCE, DESIGN ENTREPRENEUR and TECHNOLOGY are my concerns in design.
Three words to describe me: Adaptive, Efficient, Responsible
My best design skills: 3D modeling and rendering, Problems solving, Protoyping, and User research -
