Kon’nichiwa!
I’m Lau.

Lau effectively helped me to decide and switch careers. With his Mentorship I was able to start the UI/UX journey and substantially change my professional life.

Lau is the king of the pixel and the alignment. It’s amazing his capacity to keep track of the design process with such beautiful and careful documentation (wireframes, business canvas, user persona, etc.). We worked together for 9 weeks in a UX/UI intensive Bootcamp in Ironhack and I learned a lot from him. He is a great teammate, full of patient, a good listener and with the best advice.

Lau was an incredible teacher who encouraged the class, always bringing cutting-edge content and teachings. I was lucky to keep in touch and follow his professional development in other areas, always being a reference in the sector.

I had the opportunity of working with Lau in 2 different projects along the UX/UI Bootcamp at Ironhack Barcelona, being next to him has been an amazing learning experience.
Lau is so focus, determinant, and enthusiastic, that working with him was challenging and exciting all along.
Lau is a good listener, and as a good professor that he is, he’s great at explaining and sharing ideas, which makes him a good team player.

Lau is an outstanding Storyteller, UX and Visual Designer. His ability to turn complex issues into smart and beautiful designs is pure incredible. He’s a teamplayer who always thinks efficiency first and is always the good spirit when things get rough during the design process. I hope to work soon with him on future projects!

Lau is an artist. Although we never worked directly together on a project, we spent many weekends studying or ux-ing at Ironhack. I learnt so much from him about visual design, especially about alignment and proximity. He has helped me drastically improve in my visual design skills. He brought so much experience and a great attention to detail, to our UX/UI class.

The first time I met Lau was unforgettable. I was studying Business and Architecture at the same time at two different faculties, kind of lost, not knowing what to do. I went to a workshop of a "Design Thinking" that I had never heard of. I was amazed. And since then the name Yamazaki has not left my head. Lau was also present in two other turning points in my life: he accepted to be part of the board, as a guest professor, of my Postgraduate TCC at UFBA (the topic was about Design Thinking lol). And the other moment is now: living abroad, lost again, I sought him out to learn more, learn about UX. Lau is my mentor. Whenever I want to take a turn, a change, refresh my studies, it's he I remember.
