SIMPLE IS SMART
Hai Dai Nguyen, has extensive experience in multimedia and human interface development. Since the beginning of the today's Internet, he has designed user interface for most network service applications; ranging from remote access and unified messaging to device network applications and information devices. In short, if it shared; he has "tried" to make access UI for them.

After developing an array of applications and products from a tool-centric development process (putting the user experience last), HaiDai realized he was only creating more tools and tasks for the user to manage.

Hai Dai's passion is to architect designs that simplify the user's navigation and to help users achieve their goals efficiently and effectively. Hai Dai wants to design information that user can relate with. Making information more accessible, simple, and alike as in the exchange of our daily conversation.
