ABOUT ME
Hi, I’m Noah Z.
Art director. Designer.
A systems thinker with a human side.
I spent sixteen years at NetEase Games, growing from designer to Senior Art Director and building the GT Art and Design Department from 10 to 200+ artists. I connect visual ambition with the people and processes that bring it to life.
Working alongside so many brilliant, fun-loving souls at NetEase is an experience I deeply treasure.

BEYOND THE JOB TITLE
Rigor. With room
for a little play.
I care about how people feel while making things together. Curiosity and humor are part of the practice.
Yes, that’s me in the frog suit.
Creative teams need trust, shared purpose—and sometimes a reason to laugh.
Always a beginner somewhere.
I write, climb, and explore wine and culture. Learning outside design keeps me curious inside it.
