Hello, I'm Valerie Tan Yan Ling
My achievements while schooling includes 1st Prize in 'HDB Cool Ideas' Competition which is a team effort. Our design was showcased to the public in an exhibition @ HDB Hub Mall.
I have also clinched a Director's List award in academic year 2015 / 2016 during my course of study at Temasek Polytechnic, School of Design.
Background
I studied Interior Design as i have always been fascinated with beautiful architectures and aesthetically pleasing spaces, i was curious to learn more about the design process.
After going through academic rigors and work internship ,
I thoroughly enjoyed the designing process but did not fully embrace the rigor of site visits thus i decided to explore other areas of interest as career options.
i went on to be a contractual admin staff to have a taste of coporate workflow. However i found myself yearning to create again thus my day time were spent working, my night time were spent on being self-taught in graphic design using various design softwares.
As we broke out into the pandemic period, the company did not renew contractual staffs. Thus i went on to look for a flexible job so as to kickstart my freelance design works.
I listed my services on platforms such as Fiverr and Carousell which brought clients to me and i discovered that i have an inclination and aptitude for creating UX / UI design amongst the graphic works that i've done.
Thus i'm now venturing into this new and exciting journey!
