Weiming Huang

Freelance Designer / Part Time Lecturer

Singapore City, Singapore
Hi, I am Huang Weiming. Born 1984, in Singapore, I started off having ambitions to become a taxi driver, exploring the huge and wondrous world we live in. Needless to say, exploration resulted in my curious nature and I found myself in Singapore Polytechnic understanding the wonders of our media world. During which, curiosity combined with an attraction of aesthetics drew me to specialise in design and communication towards my final year in Singapore Polytechnic Diploma in Media and Communications. During a very exciting final semester, I found out what I was looking for. Through Singapore Polytechnic, next stop was LASALLE College of the Arts.

After three years of study, graphic and advertising design has turned into an incurable disease. Although the journey in LASALLE College of the Arts is less than smooth, I do, however, enjoy the symptoms with great passion and joy. And despite the fact that there is no cure, the future looks brighter than ever.
