Jean Aw’s Summary
25 year old designer, trendspotter, and entrepreneur, with a Masters Degree in User Experience Design where I focused on both conceptual and visual design and usability research.
I have since channeled my education and design into NOTCOT Inc, a network of informative and collaborative websites that doubles as a design consultancy. By keeping my readers (and my readers keeping me) on the cutting edge of design, this network demonstrates, inspires, and promotes smart, simple user experiences while stimulating a visual, aesthetic and textual dialogue between users and designers.
While based in my hometown of Los Angeles, CA, I am still very mobile, hopping around the country and across the globe, entrenching myself in international culture and their respective design hotspots. As a colleague once said "She often finds the most incredible things in the most unlikely of places and loves bringing them to her readers, often leaving them wondering whether the treasure was in their existence or in their discovery." --- it's also been said i have a fetish for Packaging Design.
