Highlighting a few other recent clients...
After leading & managing design at startups, I channeled my passion for entrepreneurship into founding Quainto, my own design agency. Quaint Definition: Skillfully strange, peculiarly attractive, or unusual in an interesting way.
Ever since our success of Sword Reverie. One of the first open world VR ARPG games launched on Oculus & SteamVR and top 5 funded VR titles on Kickstarter. My enthusiasm in the VR/AR field continues, we have pioneered with ex Meta & Google product teams to launch Metaverse.ai and help raise over 6million in capital for the team in 2023.
Since 2021, our team has been working with Generative AI technology in gaming, medical, social media, and professional development. Here is an example from one of our partners from Harvard Business School via HBS spark grants.
As an international full-service agency, we've extended our expertise beyond traditional UX, supporting our Beijing team in delivering significant tech event exhibits, including AWS reinvent, for over 10,000 attendees.
Following the success of Sword Reverie, a top-five Kickstarter-funded open-world VR ARPG on Oculus & SteamVR, our passion for VR/AR has only intensified. In collaboration with ex-Meta and Google teams, we launched Metaverse.ai and successfully raised over $6 million in 2023.
Ive seen Leon in Universities teaching?
To me, a great designer goes beyond delivering successful products. There is an unmatched reward in fostering empathy and human connection in the UX realm, through enriching the UX community with education.
Guest Lecturing & hosting workshops
I discover my purpose as a UX educator by remaining down to earth to students as a life long mentor
Non-profits & Diversity
I partner with global nonprofits to advance tech inclusivity through initiatives like scholarships, public events, and conferences such as IDSA, TedX, and many others.
