About

Hello, I'm Lin Zhang

I'm a Design Engineer who believes that the best products are built at the intersection of design and engineering. I craft emotionally intelligent, AI-powered interfaces that feel human and delightful to use.

Philosophy

Technology should amplify human creativity and connection, not replace it. I approach every project by asking: How can this tool make someone feel more capable? How can it create moments of genuine delight?

I believe in:

  • Design systems thinking: Creating reusable, composable components that scale across products
  • Continuous learning: The field evolves rapidly; staying curious and adaptable is essential
  • Inclusive design: Great products work for everyone, not just the able-bodied or technically savvy

Currently

I'm exploring how AI can enhance creativity in design tools, particularly around generative interfaces and intelligent design assistance. I'm fascinated by systems that learn from users and adapt to their workflow rather than forcing rigid patterns.

When I'm not building products, you'll find me contributing to open source, mentoring junior designers, or experimenting with generative art.

Let's Connect

I'm always interested in collaborating on projects that push boundaries and make a meaningful impact. If you're working on something exciting, let's talk.
