I’m a product designer who can easily switch between soft mode and critical mode. How did I learn this? Through theater directing and teaching!

When I was directing plays, I took care of the team members, and analyzed each character to give feedback. That is because all characters have different reasons for their lines or gestures. Just like UX design. I try to understand what makes people do things the way they do. As a teacher, I focused on understanding students’ points of view to give them what they needed in their way because sometimes my idea of helping isn’t their idea of helping. That taught me how to take others’ perspectives and smoothly communicate with others. Through these experiences, I learned when to use which and advantages of each side.
