Experience of interaction design in Britain
In her spare time, Ms. Yoyo's loving attitude towards life made her not satisfied with this kind of life experience. Life must be full of surprises and adventure to be interesting. During her life journey, Ms. Yoyo decided to join an online marketing studio in Europe.
These two almost completely different jobs, constantly changing identities and roles, and the "irregular" life of daily commuting between Singapore and Melbourne, not only did not cause her trouble, but also inspired the other side of Yoyo.
from Inspiration collection, user research, from conceptual design, product testing to final landing While enjoying two jobs at the same time, Mr. Yoyo met more interesting and creative designers, who together provided Internet product solutions for many world-class brands.
During this period, Mr. Yoyo and other designers designed a new generation logo for MarComm News. (MarComm News: Headquartered in London, UK, it is a sharing platform focusing on the Internet industry and also a cooperative media of Cannes Advertising Festival).

Constant contact with front-line brands has enabled Yoyo teacher to gain a better platform and resources while accumulating rich experience. The cooperation with the brands is never a simple line, which is inextricably linked. Each department is connected with each other. Although it seems that each responsible work is only a small part, this "small part" of the work, It also requires everyone's teamwork.
