Hi there,
Hi there,
I am Yilin Wang
I am Yilin Wang
I began my journey in visual communication design, where I discovered the power of form, color, and layout to tell meaningful stories. But as I kept designing, I realized that beauty alone wasn’t enough—I wanted to design for people who are often left out of the conversation.
That led me to pursue a master’s in inclusive design at OCAD University, where I explored how accessibility, equity, and empathy can shape more thoughtful digital experiences.
Along the way, I’ve worked with Asian females community, social organizations(NGO), and small businesses—each project teaching me to listen more carefully and design more intentionally. I care deeply about both visual clarity and social impact, and I’m most inspired when I’m creating for communities on the margins. Whether I’m building a design system or shaping a service experience, I’m driven by the belief that good design should make people feel seen, respected, and supported.

More About Me
Outside of design, I find joy in exploring new places, photographing quiet moments, and spending time in nature. These experiences help me slow down, observe the world more closely, and bring a sense of calm and clarity into my creative work.
Outside of design, I find joy in exploring new places, photographing quiet moments, and spending time in nature. These experiences help me slow down, observe the world more closely, and bring a sense of calm and clarity into my creative work.
Much of my illustration and personal artwork is shaped by these quiet observations—capturing fleeting moods, natural details, and stories gathered through travel. Drawing has become a way for me to reflect, reconnect, and translate my surroundings into gentle visual narratives.
