About David 孟海涛 Monson

I am an experienced product designer and manager that specializes in simplifying incredibly complex requirements down into easy to use interfaces. I’ve had the unique opportunity to work on hundreds of mobile and web apps and can quickly think creatively and abstractly to solve daunting interface issues while maintaining beautiful visual design. I am an experienced manager and have spent the last 2 years pushing the envelope around design quality, scaling feedback to large numbers of designers, and teaching developers the right design skills to successfully build great interfaces.Figma is my current design tool of choice. I’ve been pushing it to its limit paired with Zoom and Notion for running large scale and remote design critiques, iteration jams, design lessons, etc. I’ve developed numerous strategies, templates, and processes to create creative experiences that are often better than what can be done in person.I have a background in software engineering and project management and can talk intelligently on all sides of a product team. I am a self-starter and do not shy away from big responsibilities as you’ll see below in my profile.Experience: I am primarily a UI/UX designer but I\'ve worked in a large range of positions and responsibilities which give me added insight when it comes to designing/developing software. My experience also includes iOS development, marketing, project management, business strategy, entrepreneurship, social media, photography, web design, communications, data analysis, market strategies, marketing automation, competitive analysis, and operations. I speak Mandarin Chinese and have 2 ½ years of experience working in China. Have big tasks or challenges ahead? Put me on them.
