Love a flatwhite stroll through my neighbourhood Islington
Moin*, I'm Mai-Linh––pronounced 'Mylin'.
My experience spans corporate legacy brands and small tech startups, across industries including media, eCommerce, and software in both B2B and B2C environments.
I work across the product lifecycle, from discovery through to production, shaping flows, interactions, and experiences that make complex products work.
(Currently open to new product design opportunities)
MORE ABOUT ME
Born in 'ze' German countryside (where people say 'moin'), I studied architecture and graduated with a Master’s degree in Leipzig. After working in several studios in Berlin, I moved to London, said TTFN to architecture, and reoriented in digital product design.
(A day in the hometown lido in Löningen, Germany)
Architecture taught me to think about how people move through, understand, and interact with designed environments. It also shaped my resourcefulness and structural approach to problem-solving.
I care about the relationship between function and aesthetics, and have an affinity for minimalism and simplicity.
After all, if function were all that mattered, why would we choose wine based on the label's appeal?

In my free time––when I’m not faffing about with my cat, I enjoy reading, travelling, and simply soaking up the details of the world around me. This curiosity about how people live, work, and solve problems across different cultures is endlessly inspiring, and it continually informs and refines my approach to both design and life.

*Moin means 'Hi', 'Hello', 'Good morning', 'Good evening' and everything in between, as long as it is used to greet people. It is primarly used in the northern parts of Germany––preferably mumbled and with a nonchalant raising of the index finger. ☻
