Hello, I am Yilan Tao, you can call me Elan. I am a designer with a love for technology and spatial storytelling.
Currently, I am working on MR projects at Reality Design Lab, Holo Interactive as a UX designer and research assistant. We are exploring the new paradigms of MR user experience here together with our developers’ community. Check our website here: https://holokit.io
From the Atom world to the Bit world, I hope to use design to better connect people and communities in the real life.
