Hi there, I’m May(泽璇)!

an Artist, Designer, and Ceramicist

I’m a sophomore at Cornell University majoring in Information Science and minoring in Fine Art.


My journey with art began at the age of four, when I discovered how drawing and creating could be a language of its own. Over time, I grew fascinated with art's potential to connect with people and to communicate emotions. In college, I found product design and realized it could extend my creativity beyond the canvas, reaching people through the objects and interfaces they interact with every day. For me, design is about impact and creating experiences that are both intuitive and meaningful.


I draw on my fine art background to balance creativity with functionality, combining artistic intuition with user centered design. Each project is an exploration of how aesthetics and usability can work together to tell a story, solve a problem, or spark connection.


Raised in Shanghai, I was surrounded by artistry and cultural heritage from an early age. Later, moving to California inspired me to combine those roots with modern design approaches. These experiences taught me the value of precision, care, and the joy of creating something tangible, values that continue to guide my work as I build a bridge between art and design.
