PORTFOLIO
Team 25K Website
2022
The Team 25K website is a page where people interested in the Vex Robotics Competition can get information about the team, learn about the team members, and obtain contact information. The website is a single page experience with bold colours and text that represent Team 25K. Handcrafted from scratch, a simplistic design with fluid animations brings the website to life.
Elapse App Design
2023
A feature rich app paired with a sleek design is what will make the Elapse app a must have at Vex Robotics Competitions. The app is designed to provide the most important information to competitors at a glance while keeping a simple and delightful user experience.
The Drive Team Podcast
2022
The Drive Team Podcast is a show that brings in people from the competitive robotics community to talk about their robotics journeys. People with many years of experience all have a different background and a different story and sharing that with the world is very interesting and inspirational.

ABOUT ME
Hi there! My name is Winston Zhao. I’m a Global Business & Digital Arts student at the University of Waterloo. As a product designer, I craft software and digital experiences that solve problems and delight users. I'm also passionate about front-end development. In my free time I enjoy exploring the city on my bike, reading a good manga, and taking photos!
Over the past few years, I’ve developed a particular interest in user interface and user experience design. I believe that the visual aesthetics and human interactions of a product’s design greatly affects the resulting quality and experience. While working on projects for clients, school clubs, and extracurricular activities, I got the chance to develop my skills and learn new things, while meeting new people in the process. Thanks for taking the time to come to my website. Feel free to look around and check out my portfolio!
What I Use
Playground
While projects are cool and all, a lot of the time I find myself working on one off, almost experimental pieces. These range from drawings to photographs, and a lot of other things in between! Many of these pieces were created on the fly, while some were inspired by other creators. Inspiration is what matters here.
Many playground pieces help me brainstorm and find my next best idea. It’s an important part of the design process, and often shows my “style” of design. Check out my playground and I hope you enjoy what you see!
This website is a space where I share my work, experiments, and my journey in digital design. If you haven’t yet, go check out the projects that I worked on and read about each of them in my portfolio. My portfolio features a variety of projects that I have worked on over the years, including graphic design, illustration, and web design. Each project has its own unique story and challenges that I faced along the way.
If you’re interested in learning more about my work or would like to collaborate on a project together, feel free to reach out to me through the contact section. I’m always happy to talk and meet new people!
CONTACT
I’m always open to new opportunities and collaborations. If you have a project that you think I can help with, feel free to contact me. You can email or message me on my socials and I’ll get back to you as soon as possible. Let’s work together and create something amazing!
