Thank you for your visit! I’m Ak Jan Li, a UX/UI product designer and visual artist with over 10 years of experience in the creative industry. I’m deeply inspired by the world around me and passionate about transforming everyday observations into meaningful, uplifting visual stories that bring clarity, joy, and practical solutions to people’s challenges through thoughtful design.
Working with AI has become an essential part of my creative routine, helping me streamline workflows and push my design to new levels of quality and creativity.
My experience and perspective on using AI is that it becomes truly powerful when paired with a strong design foundation. Like choosing fresh, wholesome meals over ultra-processed ones, thoughtful design combined with AI doesn’t just sustain creativity — it nourishes and elevates it for the long run.
AI is a remarkable innovation, but whether it will build or destroy depends on how we choose to shape it for a better world.
