Design is not just about aesthetics. "I want to help others through design," Nga Man emphasises. After graduating from a degree programme in graphic design, she realised an important aspect of design was being practical and helpful. Her instructor once told her that aesthetics was only the basic design requirement; more crucial was whether the design could fulfil its users' needs. During her studies, Nga Man did not limit herself to designing commercialised products and promotional materials, but also tried to explore different ideas such as creating games to help retired seniors expand their social circles, or designing card games for those suffering from impostor syndrome.

Nga Man says that symptoms of impostor syndrome include constant self-doubt, which is common among people in Hong Kong.

Receiving a Jockey Club Scholarship was an important milestone in her life, Nga Man says, as it empowered her to pursue her dream of exploring the world of design. She actively took part in various volunteer projects and interest classes where she could acquire knowledge and skills applicable to different fields, in order to enrich her life and broaden her horizons. Nga Man chose to be a different type of "designer" after graduation. Instead of applying for higher-paid jobs in the business world, she took up the job of assistant event officer at a charitable organisation. By using her professional design know-how to plan and organise community events, she wanted to bring new ideas to the community and enrich people's quality of life.

In her spare time, Nga Man participates in local community projects with equal enthusiasm. She conducts field trips with volunteer teams to identify marginalised or needy groups who have difficulty accessing public services. She encourages grass-roots residents to participate in community work themselves and help build a happy living environment through initiatives such as home renovations, helping stray animals and greening. "I really want to use the skills I've learned in community development to enhance people's lives and make them happy and confident," she explains.

Nga Man said the Scholarship enabled her to participate in different activities and meet people from different fields, broadening her horizons.
