I’m Aurora

I'm a London-based product and service designer with strong initiative and a keen eye for quality and productivity.

I'm a London-based product and service designer with a curious mind and a sharp eye for quality, clarity, and meaningful delivery.

I'm a London-based product and service designer with strong initiative and a keen eye for quality and productivity.

I’ve worked across various stages of product delivery, collaborating with senior designers, product owners, engineers, and stakeholders on strategy, roadmaps, scoping, and design execution. These experiences have sharpened my ability to observe the design process with precision, translate user needs into strategic opportunities, and deliver impactful, data-informed solutions.

This foundation is supported by a Master’s in Service Design from the University of the Arts London, following several years designing digital products and services in the mobility sector, including crafting intuitive experiences and advanced features for over half a million electric scooter users at Gogoro Taiwan.

More than anything, I thrive in environments shaped by ambition, curiosity, diversity, and joy. I'm passionate about uncovering overlooked pain points in society and creating lasting, meaningful change in people’s lives.

Offline Mode

In my downtime, I dive into books and manga, watch movies, dramas, and anime, update my Letterboxd 💗 and ever-growing watchlist. I also sort travel photos from my phone and film camera, tune into lifestyle podcasts, roll out the yoga mat, tackle jigsaw puzzles, tweak my homemade recipes, bake pastries or bagels, whip up new drink mixes, play mobile games, deep-clean the house, expand my travel and food map, scroll through Threads, dabble in new hobbies (crocheting is next on the list), learn Japanese, or sometimes I just daydream in bed.
